The challenge calls for BOMA members to decrease energy consumption in existing buildings by 30 percent across their portfolios by 2012 and benchmark every building’s energy performance and water usage at least once a year using the Energy Star benchmarking tool. BOMA features education for maintenance personnel, energy audits, and improved building maintenance as chief strategies in the plan.
