S. 2074- Energy Savings & Industrial Competitiveness Act. BOMA supports the revisions to Section 179d of the Internal Revenue Code to provide enhanced incentives for energy efficiency retrofits to existing buildings that are outlined in this legislation. H.R. 2126, the Energy Efficiency Improvement Act, would create a "Tenant Star" program. BOMA supports this program as it would establish best practices and a voluntary certification system for building tenants to become partners in energy savings. H.R.4017- Smart Energy Act- BOMA supports provisions to establish a loan program for energy efficiency retrofits to buildings. S. 1000- BOMA opposes language included in this bill that would set energy efficiency targets for building codes and empower DOE to establish a national building code. Data Acquisition- BOMA believes that utilities should be required to provide whole building aggregate data to building owners. In multi-tenant buildings with separately metered tenants, the tenant- not the building owner- owns the energy data. By providing whole building aggregate data, the building owner is able to get the usage information for benchmarking, without violating the tenants' privacy concerns.

S. 2074- Energy Savings and Industrial Competitiveness Act. BOMA supports the revisions to Section 179d of the Internal Revenue Code to provide enhanced incentives for energy efficiency retrofits to existing buildings that are outlined in this legislation H.R. 2126, the Energy Efficiency Improvement Act, would create a "Tenant Star" program.BOMA supports this program as it would establish best practices and a volunatary certification system for building tenants to become partners in energy savings.H.R. 4017 - Smart Energy Act - BOMA supports provisions to establish a loan program for energy efficiency retofits to buildings. S. 1000 - BOMA International opposes language included in this bill that would set energy efficiency targets for building codes and empower DOE to establish a national building code. Data Acquisition - BOMA believes that utilities should be required to provide whole building aggregate data to building owners. In multi-tenant buildings with separately metered tenants, the tenant - not the building owner - owns the energy data. By providing whole building aggregate data, the building owner is able to get the usage information for benchmarking, without violating the tenants' privacy concerns.
