Implementing buildings’ energy efficiency standards is essential for reducing wasteful energy use and promoting sustainable practices. Energy-efficiency standards are set rules for how buildings should perform to use less energy. These standards help reduce the amount of energy needed, which in turn lowers the emissions of harmful gases that contribute to climate change. As a result, residents and property owners save money on their utility bills.  

According to a report from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy, several US states, including Colorado, California, Washington, Oregon, and Maryland, as well as cities from St. Louis to Denver, have adopted building performance standards aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of buildings. These standards benefit the environment, lead to cost savings, and improve energy efficiency for businesses. While decreased energy usage is advantageous for all states, it is particularly crucial in regions with high heating and cooling expenses. Lowering energy consumption can significantly reduce operational costs for buildings, ultimately contributing to more affordable housing ownership and operation.   At Schneider Electric, we offer solutions to help companies meet and exceed these energy efficiency standards. Our EcoStruxure Power solutions optimize energy usage, enhance asset performance, and ensure regulatory compliance. Companies can achieve their energy efficiency goals while maintaining a competitive edge by leveraging our EcoStruxure solution.
