Frequently Asked Questions
What is CBPS compliance?
CBPS (Clean Buildings Performance Standard) is a Washington State energy efficiency law that requires certain commercial buildings to meet energy performance targets. Compliance helps reduce energy costs, lower emissions, and avoid state penalties.
How do I know if my building meets the energy target?
You’ll need to benchmark your building’s energy use through EPA’s ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager and compare it against CBPS performance targets. Professional energy audits can help identify gaps and solutions.
