PREA is proud to be an affiliate of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Better Buildings Alliance. The list below highlights PREA members who have sustainability Implementation Models highlighted by the Better Buildings program. The links provide a description of the energy efficiency barrier that the member is focused on, the solution that was developed, and the outcome that followed, along with methods of measuring success, and tools and resources for others that may want to adapt the process or implement similar initiatives. PREA congratulates these members on being highlighted by Better Buildings, and on their work developing more sustainable real estate portfolios. We look forward to seeing the list of PREA members involved in the Alliance grow in the future.

Better Buildings provides many other tools and resources that can assist real estate investors in meeting their sustainability goals, see the Better Buildings Solution Center for more information. We encourage all PREA members to become involved in order to help lead the way in promoting a more sustainable real estate investment industry. Better Buildings partners commit to set a multiyear, portfolio-wide energy-savings goal of 2% annually and work with DOE to share success strategies through published case studies.
