NEEP's Commercial Buildings and Technologies Initiative focuses on the fundamental goal of improving energy efficiency in commercial and industrial buildings.
Throughout the region, expanded programs focus on improved efficiency and energy performance that address the integration of technologies and best practices in building systems such as lighting system design and HVAC systems, systems integration through commissioning and retro-commissioning, and whole building efficiency (shell measures, HVAC, lighting, appliances) programs.
Through this initiative, NEEP facilitates strategic coordination of the region's efficiency programs to meet aggressive state energy savings and environmental goals and related policy activities. The initiative integrates the range of issues and opportunities that program administrators deal with, including energy efficiency practices, technologies, community and market-based initiatives, and other demand resources. In all its facets, the initiative remains focused on progress toward net zero energy and exceeding rapidly rising baselines relative to both new and existing buildings.
