Commercial Building Partnerships

Through the Commercial Building Partnerships (CBP), building owners and operators (Partners) team with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) representatives, national laboratory staff, and private-sector technical experts to explore energy-saving ideas and strategies in retrofit and new construction projects. The projects will serve as test beds and training centers for innovative building-related research and will demonstrate how energy use can be dramatically reduced in commercial buildings.
