A natural result of BASE’s wide-ranging experience with energy systems, our extensive database provides a reliable means of assessing standard practices for various types of facilities. These include large commercial, institutional, municipal, industrial, and high-tech facilities. By comparing and benchmarking against these standards, we can identify energy performance deficiencies and potential improvements. Our engineers are also proficient with benchmarking tools developed by third parties, including:

​​

• EPA’s ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager

• BEST-Winery: Benchmarking and Energy and Water Efficiency Savings Tool

• CalARCH

• Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) Database

• Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory: High-Performance Buildings for High-Tech Industries

• Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory: Energy Efficient Cleanroom
