Turn Energy Data Into Smarter Investments
Why This Course Matters Now
Energy performance is no longer optional; it’s a financial, regulatory, and reputational priority.
With building performance laws expanding across 4 states and nearly 40 municipalities and growing, commercial real estate stakeholders are under increasing pressure to understand and improve energy efficiency. Regulations like New York City’s Local Law 97 are already enforcing strict emissions limits with real financial penalties for non-compliance.
At the same time, lenders and agencies such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and HUD are prioritizing energy performance in financing decisions.
Bottom line: If you’re buying, financing, or managing commercial property, energy performance must be part of your due diligence.
What You'll Gain
This course gives you a practical, standardized approach,based on ASTM E3224, to evaluate building energy performance quickly and confidently.
You’ll learn how to:
- Screen a building’s energy performance before acquisition
- Benchmark against peer buildings to spot risks and opportunities
- Identify cost-effective improvements that drive value
- Estimate energy savings and ROI with confidence
- Integrate findings into property condition assessments (PCAs)
By the end, you won’t just understand energy performance, you’ll know how to use it to make better investment decisions.
What Makes This Course Different
This isn’t theory, it’s applied, real-world training designed for immediate use.
