Oregon BPS Energy Audit
Services
Everything needed for Oregon BPS compliance: Energy benchmarking, on-site inspection, comprehensive audit, LCCA analysis, and production-ready reporting.
Initial Building Assessment & BPS Applicability Review
We conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your building to determine whether it falls under Oregon's Building Performance Standard requirements based on size, type, and location.
Includes: Building size verification, building type classification, location confirmation, exemption review, compliance deadline determination.
Energy Data Collection & Benchmarking Analysis
Our auditors collect complete historical energy consumption data and benchmark your building's performance against comparable properties and national standards.
Includes: 12+ months utility bill analysis, ENERGY STAR benchmarking, consumption pattern analysis, performance comparison to similar buildings.
On-Site Building Inspection
Our qualified energy auditors conduct a detailed walkthrough of your building to inspect all systems, equipment, building envelope, and operational practices.
Includes: HVAC system inspection, lighting assessment, building envelope review, equipment documentation, controls evaluation, maintenance practices review.
ASHRAE Level 2 Energy Audit per Oregon Amendments
Comprehensive energy audit following ASHRAE Standard 100 and Oregon's building performance requirements, performed by ODOE-listed Qualified Energy Auditors (QEAs).
Includes: Energy modeling, system analysis, efficiency opportunity identification, recommendations development, compliance documentation.
Life Cycle Cost Assessment (LCCA)
Detailed financial analysis comparing implementation costs, annual energy savings, maintenance costs, and payback periods for all recommended energy efficiency measures.
Includes: Cost-benefit analysis by measure, simple payback period calculation, net present value analysis, savings projections.
Full Compliance Report for ODOE Submission
Production-ready audit report meeting all Oregon Department of Energy requirements for Building Performance Standard compliance certification and submission.
Includes: Executive summary, building description, energy analysis, recommendations list, LCCA tables, compliance certification, submission guidance.
Recommendations for Cost-Effective Energy Efficiency Measures
Detailed recommendations for energy efficiency improvements ranked by payback period and annual savings potential, with implementation considerations and alternative approaches.
Includes: Efficiency opportunity identification, savings projections, cost estimates, implementation timeline, alternative measures, prioritization guidance.
Guidance on Energy Trust of Oregon Incentives
Expert guidance identifying ODOE early-compliance incentives (ECAPP, up to $0.85/sq ft, capped at $10,000–$50,000 per building) and Energy Trust of Oregon incentives that may offset audit costs and efficiency improvements.
Includes: Rebate program eligibility review, incentive opportunity identification, application process guidance, funding coordination support.
Qualified Energy Auditors (QEAs)
Audits coordinated with ODOE-listed energy professionals
How Oregon's QEA Requirement Works
Oregon BPS requires that Tier 1 energy audits be performed by a Qualified Energy Auditor (QEA) — an energy professional who has submitted Form Q qualifications to the Oregon Department of Energy. We coordinate every audit engagement with ODOE-listed QEAs so your audit satisfies the rules.

Why QEA Certification Matters
Oregon's Building Performance Standard requires that energy audits be performed by qualified professionals. The ODOE-listed Qualified Energy Auditors (QEAs) we coordinate with bring:
- → Technical Expertise: Deep knowledge of building systems, energy analysis, and ASHRAE standards
- → Professional Standards: Commitment to ethical practices and industry-leading methodologies
- → Regulatory Knowledge: Understanding of Oregon codes, BPS requirements, and ODOE procedures
- → Compliance Assurance: Audits meet all state and federal requirements for certification and submission
