Report Energy Data
Report data annually to USGBC for at least five years, post-occupancy for each energy source that is required to be metered above. Include monthly energy consumption from each metered energy source, including on-site renewable energy generation. For interior buildouts larger than 10,000 square feet (929 square meters), provide monthly peak electric demand. Provide data using the USGBC-provided platform, which includes third-party interfaces with tools such as ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager.
For project owners and managers, this valuable data enhances the understanding of building performance. The data also educates occupants and building users on behaviors that impact energy consumption and how positive behavioral changes can create better buildings.
USGBC aims to collect data from all LEED projects. Comparing data across similar project types allows for ongoing benchmarking of high-performing buildings within the LEED portfolio. The data influences refinements and enhancements to future LEED rating system requirements. Data shared with USGBC gives critical insight to the industry on the design, construction, and operation of high-performing buildings.
