ASHRAE's Partnership with APPA

The ASHRAE Building EQ program benefits owners and managers of building portfolios. For each building, the program provides an energy rating along with actionable recommendations to improve building performance. These recommendations are made by a professional assessment of a building’s energy use as determined by In Operation and/or As Designed ratings method. Building EQ is the only rating system that offers both methods with a consistent baseline to make comparisons along with detailed actionable recommendations. ASHRAE entered into an agreement with APPA in July 2016 with the commitment to cooperate across many areas including implementing Building EQ on university campuses.
