Canada Adds Hospitals to Portfolio Manager

May 27, 2014

Saving money through energy management strategies in Canadian healthcare institutions just got easier.

Canadian healthcare institutions can now implement energy management strategies utilizing ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager

The tool will help hospital administrators and facility managers find ways to use energy more responsibly and reduce expenses. Portfolio Manager is the only Canadian standardized energy benchmarking platform that uses a national data set.

According to Natural Resources Canada, 80 Canadian hospitals are already using ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager. The new ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager’s energy performance scale feature will provide hospitals with a more precise reflection of actual energy performance and takes into account weather, source energy, and other key variables.

All you need to know to benchmark your hospital’s energy performance can be found at the Natural Resources Canada website.
