• 10 years of Meter Readings Report Requirement• Use the B3 Benchmarking Reporting Format

accessed through the B3-MSBG Tracking Tool

SAINT PAUL SUSTAINABLE BUILDING POLICY

Energy Use Reporting

• All Actual Building Energy Use must match Building Energy Standard or Predicted Design Use (if variance was used)

• Program allows up to two years to remedy causes for differences

• Suggestions on how to remedy the differences• Recalculation of the Building Energy Standard
