“With one in seven households living in an apartment, multifamily buildings represent a tremendous opportunity to increase the nation’s energy efficiency,” said NMHC President and CEO, Doug Bibby. “We are extremely honored by this award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and look forward to continue building on this important work.”

NMHC earned the recognition for its CEO-level campaign aimed at facilitating access to accurate, aggregated whole building utility consumption data to drive investment in properties. Campaign elements also include the creation of a portal to highlight ENERGY STAR tools and a national survey of apartment residents to understand renter preferences of green/energy efficient apartment features to help inform future ENERGY STAR branding and outreach to the sector.
