Toronto Mulls Building Energy Reports
August 21, 2014
Toronto is a step closer to requiring big buildings to report energy and water consumption. In line with cities like New York and Chicago, the parks and environment committee is recommending the city make energy-reporting mandatory. A city report says this would enhance transparency and help motivate owners and managers to improve energy efficiency; energy-consumption reporting would also aid investors in determining property valuations. Earlier this year, BOMA’s GTA prez Chris Conway said that building energy-reporting is “more or less inevitable.”
