Building Performance Roadmap
Roadmap Origins
Through a Massachusetts focused needs assessment and subsequent implementation plan, Built Environment Plus identified the need for a resource to help building owners and operators of large existing buildings to better understand their buildings and begin planning for performance upgrades.

The resource would provide guided steps to reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency over time, providing the regulatory context and business case along the way. Existing resources, such as these listed here, established a rich and collaborative precedent.

As a member of the Building Performance Partnership hub network, the team at Built Environment Plus contributed to an Institute for Market Transformation endeavor, establishing national standards for building performance pathways. Building Energy Exchange in New York, a project lead within this work, was tasked with creating the Building Performance & Compliance Roadmap. The Built Environment Plus team, with the support of its localization and customization team, advised the Building Energy Exchange in the development of the core roadmap content.
The core content from the Building Performance & Compliance Roadmap was adapted and expanded on by the localization and customization team to better align with Massachusetts industry needs. The culmination of this work resulted in the Building Performance Exchange Building Performance Roadmap, accessible on this site. Expanded content and further developments will be provided to other hubs and partners within the Building Performance Partnership.
