Energy Star® allows you to specify sustainability goals for each category and for each facility, and then accurately and automatically track your progress. You are able to set a baseline period and measure your successes. Throughout the journey you can compare your facilities to the industry and your selected benchmarks.

Energy Star® projects allow Exergy and you to establish new projects that implement your sustainability and decarbonization strategies. The performance of the project is then monitored and periodically evaluated to ensure that it meets expectations. Best of all, the project can be done with no CAPEX, since Exergy will provide the project as a service.

Energy Star® and Exergy enable to you track all aspects of sustainability including: water, material to landfill, recycling (single stream, segregated, mixed) and reuse.

More than 300,000 commercial properties use EPA’s ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager® tool to measure and track their energy use, water use, and/or waste and materials. ENERGY STAR® is the most widely recognized symbol for energy efficiency in America. In fact, more than 90% of households recognize the blue ENERGY STAR® label.

Through the process of using Energy Star® Portfolio Manager® and Exergy’s assistance, we can chart a path to achieving Energy Star® certified ratings for your facilities.
