City's largest buildings are using less energy and reducing climate pollution
SEATTLE (Sept. 26, 2018) - A new report released today by the Seattle Office of Sustainability and Environment reveals that Seattle's benchmarked buildings are reducing climate emissions, saving money, and improving performance. Seattle's Energy Benchmarking ordinance went into effect in 2011 and requires owners of commercial and multifamily buildings 20,000 sq. ft. and larger to track their energy performance and report it annually to the City of Seattle.
