They must submit it to the California Energy Commission annually. This process, called Energy Benchmarking, is a two-step process. The process mandates building owners to track energy consumption for a 12-month basis. Then, compare your building\u2019s data with other like buildings to understand relative performance. As California has set very aggressive energy goals, starting in 2020 and extending toward 2045 to be carbon-neutral, these measurements are becoming increasingly important.\u00a0 \u00a0Additionally, AB 802 now requires all multi-family buildings owners to disclose their property\u2019s energy usage to reveal their Title 24 compliance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Solar Options <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Leveraging the power of solar is even more important for commercial building owners.\u00a0 Much of the focus of solar news seems to stem around residential solar systems. However, changes in Title 24, coinciding with reporting mandates outlined in AB 802, means commercial building owners need to be proactive in managing their energy usage.\u00a0 Not only does building code mandate clean energy dependence, AB 802 has an increase in mandated reporting, meaning it will be much more difficult for commercial building owners not to make necessary energy efficiency upgrades.\u00a0 Furthermore, 2019 is the last year people can take advantage of the <a href=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/tax-incentives-are-not-forever\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>30% tax incentive<\/strong><\/a> \u2013 which can save solar customers thousands of dollars off the top of their solar installations.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_503\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-503\" class=\"wp-image-503 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down.png\" alt=\"ITC Stepdown Chart\" width=\"720\" height=\"343\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down.png 720w, https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down-300x143.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-503\" class=\"wp-image-503 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down.png\" alt=\"ITC Stepdown Chart\" width=\"720\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down.png 720w, https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Stepping-down-300x143.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/noscript><p id=\"caption-attachment-503\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: Solar Power Rocks<\/p><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1213 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/delsolenergy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Commercial-Solar-Del-Sol-Energy-1024x510.png\" alt=\"Commercial Solar -
