Numerous platforms and tools exist to help organizations across all sectors track, manage, and share the results of their sustainability practices and operational policies to reduce energy use. However, there is little information examining what users prioritize and what platforms provide them across different sectors. In response, the Sustainable Endowments Institute (SEI) sought to study how various organizations track their energy efficiency projects by conducting a multi-sector survey to assess the benefits and weaknesses of different energy efficiency platforms. This report encourages stakeholders to evaluate their own institution’s needs as well as compare against peers in their own field.
