ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager
ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager (ESPM) is an interactive and free resource management tool that enables you to benchmark the energy use of any type of building in Canada, all in a secure online environment.
Track the energy performance of your buildings with ESPM
ESPM was created by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States to make it easier to manage and track energy data via a single platform. It was then adapted by Natural Resources Canada (NRC) for use in Canada.
It is used by many building energy consumption data disclosure initiatives in the United States and Canada. In fact, the City of Montreal has included ESPM as a tool in its By-law concerning GHG emission disclosures and ratings of large buildings.
