Commercial buildings in California consume 35 percent of the state's electricity at an annual cost of approximately $12 billion. These buildings comprise 90 percent of all square footage in the state.
Through the process of retro-commissioning, commercial buildings meeting today's energy standards can save $2.1 billion a year.
Governor Schwarzenegger enlisted real estate leaders across California to serve on the Real Estate Industry Leadership Council. This Council is composed of private sector building owners, managers and commercial real estate financiers. The Council was established to advise the Green Action Team and ensure progress toward the goals of Executive Order S-20-04 and the Green Building Action Plan. The Council supports the Green Action Team by reaching building owners and operators throughout California to promote the energy efficiency and conservation actions outlined in the Green Building Action Plan.
