ENERGY STAR® Benchmarking

Verdafero is ranked in the top 50 companies by US Department of Energy Portfolio Manager Benchmarking users in North America.

Benchmarking Compliance

An increasing number of cities, states, and municipal governments across North America have passed utility benchmarking ordinances, requiring buildings to track and report their annual energy and water consumption.

Utility benchmarking is the practice of measuring the amount of energy and water a building consumes and comparing that against other, similar buildings. This allows owners and occupants to better understand their buildings’ energy performances relative to similar buildings and helps identify opportunities to cut waste. With this knowledge, they can make smarter and more cost-effective improvements, comply with local laws while saving money and cutting waste.

Verdafero helps you save time and eliminates the complexity by providing benchmarking compliance reporting service for every state and municipality with an energy disclosure ordinance. We will file and submit the benchmarking data for compliance all of your buildings.

Please feel free to check the list below to see if your building falls under any local / state compliance requirements. Contact us if you would like help adhering to any of these ordinances.
