Buildings require significant amounts of electricity for heating, cooling, lighting, and other building functions. This energy consumption, however, can be reduced through a variety of economically achievable actions.

Building organizations and owners that participate in the Cleaner and Greener® Program for Single Buildings use energy efficiency actions to reduce their emissions that contribute to climate change, smog, and acid rain.  Buildings that participate in the Cleaner and Greener® Program have documented and reported their emission reduction benefits resulting from these building efficiency actions.

The environmentally responsible buildings listed below are leading the way to a cleaner, greener, and healthier environment by becoming Cleaner and Greener® participants.
