U.S., Canada Harmonize to Improve Commercial Building Energy


U.S. EPA and Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) have signed an agreement to measure and assess the energy performance of commercial buildings in both countries. The agreement will harmonize the approach of both countries by enhancing EPA’s existing Energy Star Portfolio Manager software tool to track and rate the energy performance of Canadian commercial buildings, in addition to buildings in the U.S.
