Assessing Energy Performance
What is a Benchmark?
A standardized, comparablemetric of whole building energy performance.

• Heighten awareness of energy use• Assess effectiveness of current operations,
policies, practices• Set priorities for upgrade efforts and retrofits• Track, verify, and recognize achievements• Document role in environmental stewardship
and demonstrate success
Why Benchmark?

Energy Benchmarking•Allows you to gauge your buildings’ efficiency by:
– Comparing buildings across your org– Comparing buildings to national averages– Comparing individual buildings from
year‐to‐year
• First step in developing an energy plan

The Portfolio Manager Score• A high score means:
– Your plant likely has implemented more best practices than other plants similar to yours
– In other words, you are doing well with what you have.
• A high score does not mean:– Your plant is more efficient than every plant with a
lower score– Your plant is energy efficient

Estimated hours lights could be switched off: Weekends hrs = 10 hrs/day X 2 days X 52 weeks = 1,040 hrs. Schools out hours = 10 hrs/day X 5 days X 10 weeks = 500 hrs. Total hours = 1,040 + 500 = 1,540 hrs. Cost Savings = 3 hallways X 23 fixtures X 75% switched off X .112 kwd/fixture X 1,540 hrs/year = 8,926 kWh X $.084 kWh = $750 Yr.
