The Benchmarking Program does not charge a fee to submit your benchmarking report.  Any entity offering to submit CEC-required reports on behalf of building owners is not associated with the CEC.

 

Colleges can confirm their compliance status at any time using the CEC's official lookup tool: BenchmarkingCA.com

​

Official compliance letters and other communications from the California Energy Commission will only come from benchmarking@energy.ca.gov. If you are not receiving email compliance notifications, reminders and more for your campus from the CEC, submit this form to update your contact information. 

​

FPPS offers paid services to help districts set up their Portfolio Manager accounts, upload energy use data (using energy bills or, under AB 802 Building Energy Use Disclosure and Public Benchmarking law, utilities will provide aggregated data for your campuses upon request), set up automatic energy data uploads into Portfolio Manager (available to customers of PG&E, SCE, SoCalGas, SDG&E, LADWP, SMUD, and Pacific Power), and/or submit their benchmarking reports. Please note that all of these tasks can be completed by districts themselves at no cost, and the ERSP has compiled the instructions for preparing and submitting reports for your campuses (due June 1 annually) below.
