Transparency, Always

Transparency is a key priority in our approach to benchmarking, because we understand the importance of having confidence in the inputs that drive real estate decision making. That’s why we openly share the parameters and logic behind our benchmarking datasets.

Annual energy use intensity (EUI) for each building is determined by aggregating monthly energy usage values.

Annual carbon emissions intensity (CEI) is calculated at the meter-reading level by applying corresponding, location-based emissions factors.

Our data quality specifications filter for outliers, and require buildings have measured utility data, adequate data coverage, tenant meters, and electric meters.

Measurabl creates benchmarking cohorts at the most granular property and location levels.

Benchmarking cohorts are subject to specific building and customer counts, which ensure both data anonymity and large enough underlying distributions.
