About Us
Greening Health Care is a ground-breaking program that goes beyond energy reporting and benchmarking to establish energy targets for individual health care facilities, and thus how much energy each hospital can expect to save.
The program is based on the concept of conservation potential and setting energy targets based on utility data and building characteristics. This knowledge of conservation potential provides the foundation and direction for effective strategy to improve energy efficiency.
Collectively, our member hospitals are building the knowledge and practice of energy efficiency, uncovering energy saving opportunities and sharing their knowledge with peers. They use Greening Health Care’s data-driven, performance-based conservation methodology to understand their energy profile identify implementation measures and set priorities for action.
