Explore Our Robust Database of Compliance Requirements

Touchstone IQ maintains the most up-to-date, comprehensive database for all energy and water benchmarking laws at the state, province, county, and city levels for large properties throughout the United States and Canada. We understand the challenges building owners and managers face when it comes to ensuring proper compliance based on your local requirements. With new amendments and different requirements based on location and property type, we're committed to providing leading, convenient guidance so you can do your part for your municipality’s sustainability efforts to improve energy efficiency while decreasing building-produced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

While every benchmarking ordinance and regulatory law has its own unique goals, energy benchmarking programs are generally designed to help building owners understand and track energy use from large buildings in addition to reducing GHG pollution economy-wide. Each municipality’s laws have been created based on local specifications in order to streamline community efforts and help building owners and managers make better-informed practices.
