Now builders can certify their mid/high-rise buildings with the trusted ENERGY STAR® brand. ENERGY STAR® certified buildings are 15% more energy efficient than the building code. With energy efficiency more in demand than ever, this is your chance to get the recognition you deserve.
ENERGY STAR® certification can increase your building value and generate more income when compared to similar buildings by lowering your operating costs and increasing rental value and occupancy rates.
Alternatively, homebuyers can buy your units with confidence, knowing that their new condominium will help them save energy, lower their carbon footprint, and offer potentially higher resale values.
90% of Canadians know and trust the ENERGY STAR® brand. Get the certification that homeowners trust! Take full advantage of this marketing opportunity as a builder of Multifamily High Rise-certified buildings.
ENERQUALITY is the sole organization authorized to certify buildings under the ENERGY STAR® Multi-Family High-Rise (ES-MFHR) program, providing expert verification that each building meets rigorous ENERGY STAR® guidelines.
