Overview
The free ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager®: Understand and Improve your Energy Performance webinar focused on using benchmarking data to support energy reporting and compliance requirements. Designed for facility managers, government officials, and energy professionals, this session explores how benchmarking results can inform effective, data‑driven decision‑making.
Participants will learn how to interpret benchmarking results, identify and prioritize energy and cost‑saving opportunities, and leverage ENERGY STAR® resources to support compliance initiatives and improve building performance.
By the end of the webinar, participants will be equipped to move beyond benchmarking and use performance data as a practical roadmap for continuous energy improvement
ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager® is a management tool designed to measure and assess the energy performance of commercial and institutional buildings. Following widespread use in the United States, Natural Resources Canada adapted Portfolio Manager for use in Canada, where more than 26,000 buildings have been entered into the tool.
Over the years, Portfolio Manager has grown in popularity and usage because it allows users to understand energy consumption and associated costs (energy, water, and other resources), compare their buildings to similar properties, establish benchmarks, set realistic targets, and track the impact of reduction strategies through customized reports.
