Description
In July 2010, ASHE and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducted a survey to learn the key drivers in hospitals and how they have changed since 1997. This session will provide the results of the survey and explain how it will impact EPA’s ENERGY STAR measurement and tracking tool, Portfolio Manager, when it gets updated in October. This session will enable you to:
* Discuss how energy usage has changed in the health care setting since 1997.
* List the new input needed when a facility applies for an ENERGY STAR® rating.
* Discuss how energy usage has changed in the health care setting since 1997.
