The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced the progress made by the more than 900 public- and private-sector organizations leading the U.S. in energy efficiency through their participation in the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s Better Buildings Initiative. Together, Better Buildings partners have saved 1.38 quadrillion British thermal units, equivalent to $8.4 billion in energy and cost savings. These market leaders are adopting emerging technologies, advancing the American workforce and sharing their innovative approaches to energy and water efficiency. The 2019 Better Buildings Progress Report highlights this progress and specific accomplishments in the commercial, industrial, residential and public sectors to improve energy productivity.
Partners in the Better Buildings Initiative represent 32 of the country’s Fortune 100 companies, 12 of the top 25 U.S. employers, 12% of the U.S. manufacturing energy footprint and 13% of total commercial building space, as well as 17 Federal agencies, eight national laboratories, 28 states and 90 local governments spanning the nation.
