Are your buildings in compliance with local benchmarking ordinances?
Each year, cities and states across the U.S. institute new benchmarking ordinances, while also expanding existing requirements. Deadlines for 2025 are quickly approaching!
Benchmarking experts you can trust.
EnergyPrint has helped customers track their buildings and meet reporting requirements for corporate sustainability mandates and local energy benchmarking ordinances since 2009. As a 6-time ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year and Premier Member of ENERGY STAR®'s Certification Nation, we're pros at getting your Portfolio Manager account current and getting you into compliance. Get in touch today to get started!
Are you managing benchmarking compliance with an internal process?
There’s an easier way.
Using data collected from benchmarking and transparency (B&T) policies, building owners, managers, and operators can identify opportunities to cost-effectively reduce wasted energy and water.
However, the effort and time needed to meet these reporting requirements can be overwhelming when you’re drowning in utility bills and manually entering meter data, especially as a compliance deadline is fast approaching.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or streamlining compliance for the future, we can help you automate the process and reduce errors for stress-free reporting.
ENERGY STAR’s Portfolio Manager is the most common tool used for tracking and submitting energy benchmarking data. EnergyPrint can seamlessly upload your utility data into the Portfolio Manager, preventing you from having to learn a new system from scratch.
How does EnergyPrint work?
EnergyPrint is a full-service data collection and compliance reporting partner. We not only input and deliver data, but also manage the entire collection and validation process to ensure you have quality data when and where you need it.
We can get your facility onboarded with 3 easy steps:
- Enter Your Building Information
- Upload Utility Bill Copies and/or Provide Utility Account Access
- Sign Authorizations
Our team of experts will then ensure you’re prepared to meet any current or future local benchmarking requirements.

"EnergyPrint makes our energy benchmarking easy. We tried to do it internally and faced challenges like working with our utility providers or manually entering utility data into ENERGY STAR. Now that EnergyPrint handles our compliance, it simplified our process and we don’t have any of the errors or issues we used to spend hours trying to resolve."
