ENERGY STAR® Benchmarking & Certification Services

Measure. Improve. Certify.

OPPD offers ENERGY STAR® Benchmarking and Certification services to help commercial and industrial customers understand their building’s energy performance—and take action to improve it. Whether you're looking to assess your current standing or pursue national recognition, we provide expert support every step of the way.

What is ENERGY STAR® Benchmarking?

Benchmarking is the process of assessing your building’s energy use and comparing it to similar buildings nationwide using the EPA’s ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager tool.

Our team will:

• Collect and verify your building’s energy and operational data
• Enter the data into Portfolio Manager
• Generate your ENERGY STAR® score (on a scale of 1–100)
  
  

Buildings that score 75 or higher (meaning your building performs better than 75% of similar buildings) may be eligible for ENERGY STAR® Certification.

What Happens After Benchmarking?

If your building scores below 75, we’ll work with you to identify opportunities for improvement.

This may include:

• ECO 24/7 initial assessment
• Equipment upgrades
• Operational changes
• Incentive program recommendations
  
  

Our goal is to help you improve your score and reduce your energy costs—turning benchmarking into a roadmap for action.

What is ENERGY STAR® Certification?

If you building scores 75 or above, we’ll work with you to take the next steps required for ENERGY STAR® Certification, a nationally recognized symbol of energy efficiency and environmental leadership.

To qualify, a building must:

• Score 75 or higher in Portfolio Manager
• Meet indoor environmental quality standards
• Be verified by a licensed Professional Engineer (PE)
