The GREEN UP Program provides tools, performance standards and resources to help building owners and operators understand, measure and compare on-going performance of their building portfolio to help them find efficiencies and improvements to achieve deep reductions in energy use, water use and greenhouse gas emissions, together with related environmental and economic benefits for buildings, homes and communities in all parts of the country. 

Savings in energy and water use and greenhouse gas emission from participants of the GREEN UP program can be seen in the table below.

Benefits of taking part in this trendsetting program

• Use the online Green Building Performance System to maximize energy, water and emissions savings in your buildings 

• Track greenhouse gas emissions

• Set energy and water performance targets for your buildings, guided by top performers

• Highlight retrofit opportunities and system improvements using the Building Performance Audit (BPA)

Building Performance Audit (BPA)

The BPA measures and documents the design and performance metrics of building systems, identifying areas for improvement and enabling better energy performance.
