EPA Launches National Building Energy Competition
September 6th, 2012 | Posted by in Eco-Friendly
Thousands of buildings around the U.S. are competing against each other to win the 2012 National Building Competition, which was U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Each participant in the yearlong contest will compete to see who can save the most energy. The EPA will recognize the building with the largest percentage reduction in energy use in April 2013. "This year the number of teams committing to increase energy efficiency through the Energy Star Battle of the Buildings is larger than ever before — more than ten times as many as last year. We're expecting record energy savings as more and more buildings cut back on their energy use," said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Competitors use EPA's Energy Star online tool, Portfolio Manager, to track their monthly energy consumption.
