2023 Multifamily Energy and Water Survey
On March 1, the 2023 Multifamily Energy and Water Survey launched. This survey is a national effort to collect and analyze energy and water consumption and costs in Multifamily properties in the U.S. The data collected will be used to update the ENERGY STAR® 1-100 energy performance score and the U.S. Environment Protection Agency’s (EPA) Water Score for multifamily properties. These publicly available metrics allow building owners and managers to track and compare their energy and water use.
While participation is voluntary, we know many multifamily property owners and managers rely on these scores to understand the relative performance of their properties. This is your opportunity to contribute to the future energy and water metrics for multifamily properties in the U.S. – your survey response ensures the data is as representative as possible.
