The Portfolio Manager DataTrends series is the first-ever analysis of aggregate data stored within ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, pulled from a pool of hundreds of thousands of commercial buildings across the United States. This fact sheet --- Benchmarking and Energy Savings --- gives the first-ever evidence that buildings that benchmark their energy use on a regular basis tend to reduce their energy consumption by 2.4 percent per year, on average. Other statistics are also presented in an easy-to-read format.

This 2-page factsheet summarizes the energy, operational, and property characteristics of retail stores benchmarking in Portfolio Manager. Other statistics are also presented in an easy-to-read format.

The factsheet is part of the Portfolio Manager DataTrends series, which uses the data available in Portfolio Manager to examine benchmarking and trends in energy and water consumption in hundreds of thousands of U.S. commercial buildings.

This document describes the data and analysis used to update the ENERGY STAR Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) for wet corn mills. The paper also compares the results of the original 1997 EPI with the updated analysis which is useful to someone who is interested in how the industry has changed during the last decade. The first section describes the data and the analysis used for the update. The second section compares the two models to show how the energy performance of this industry has changed over time.

This report describes the data and statistical methods used to construct the Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) for glass manufacturing plants. It also explains how the EPI was developed to provide a plant-level indicator of energy efficiency by working with the glass manufacturing industry. This report is useful if you would like background information on how EPA's ENERGY STAR Glass Manufacturing Plant EPI was developed. The report presents the individual equations used to develop the EPI, as well as instructions for using them in an associated Excel spreadsheet.

This report describes the work of EPA and the food processing industry to develop an Energy Performance Indicator (EPI) for food processing plants and explains how EPA's ENERGY STAR program uses EPIs to encourage industries to voluntarily improve their energy use. The report describes the data and statistical methods used to construct the EPI for the following food procession plants: juice, frozen fried potatoes, tomato products, and cook and cracker bakeries. The equations are presented with instructions for using them in an associated Excel spreadsheet.
