The Department of Energy conducted a review of existing market research on the impact of Energy Efficiency and Green Labels on building financial performance. The goal of the effort was to determine the extent to which empirical evidence currently available to the market demonstrates that efficiency contributes to overall building financial performance. The resulting briefing book reviews and summarizes over 50 relevant studies that examined a range of potential outcomes from efficiency, including operating expenses, rents, vacancy, sales prices and other drivers of Net Operating Income and Asset Value. This webinar will present the research review and discuss areas that have been identified for further research.
