RCx and LEED-EB
 
Thinking about participating in the U.S. Green Building Council's (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Existing Buildings (LEED-EB)? Retrocommissioning can play an important role in acquiring certification for your facility by maximizing operational efficiency and minimizing environmental impacts.
 
Among other things, the LEED rating system addresses maintenance issues, indoor air quality, energy & water efficiency and system upgrades.
 

The SDG&E RCx Program can help reduce your energy use and improve existing operations. We also provide ENERGY STAR® benchmarking for qualifying buildings, which could increase the LEED Energy & Atmosphere points for your facility.

 

Find out more about LEED-EB by visiting the USGBC website or by attending USGBC's Green Meet at CCSE on May 21 at 5:30pm.
