Battle of the Buildings: Best Practices
Last year, more than 6,500 buildings and 143 teams competed in EPA’s ENERGY STAR National Building Competition to cut energy and water waste, save money, and help protect the environment. As Administrator Gina McCarthy observed, the results were impressive! We learned a lot from the winners and are excited to share their winning strategies with you.
