May 2, 2007—For achieving a 10+ rating point increase in energy efficiency as measured by the US EPA’s Energy Star benchmarking tool, Siemens Building Technologies, Inc., was recently awarded two Certificates of Achievement for its work with Thompson School District by the National Association of Energy Service Companies (NAESCO).
Through an energy savings performance contract, Siemens delivered a comprehensive series of energy efficiency-related facility improvements to Thompson School District’s Winona Elementary and Turner Middle Schools in Loveland, Colorado.
Energy savings from the performance contract were verified using the International Performance Measurement & Verification Protocol (IPMVP) and monitored by Portfolio Manager, the Energy Star benchmarking tool. According to the EPA, through Portfolio Manager, Thompson School District receives energy tracking and benchmarking information that helps heighten the staff’s energy awareness and helps them improve operational strategies.
