Energy Benchmarking Program

What is Energy Benchmarking?

Energy Benchmarking puts a spotlight on the amount of energy your faith building is using. But you can’t manage what you don’t measure! And that’s what Energy Benchmarking is; a measurement and review of your building’s energy consumption to determine if your building’s energy performance is getting better or worse each year.

This program is for faith organizations located in Halton-Peel. It is managed by Faith & the Common Good. 

Key information you will learn about your faith building:

– How much energy your building uses

– How much money you spend on energy

– Your faith building’s carbon footprint

– How your building compares to other similar faith buildings

 

But you get more than just a report!
