The Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR® certification is a nationally recognized designation that puts your building in the top tier of energy efficient buildings. ENERGY STAR® certification can help your building secure more competitive financing terms, communicate your sustainability values to your tenants, and place your property among a selective national grouping of the highest performing buildings across the country. Elaton Energy’s efficiency experts are here to help from the start of the process—setting up your ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager® profile—through to the end with our in-house licensed professionals to validate your application.
