B3 Benchmarking was used by the Minnesota State College and Universities system to help reduce overall energy consumption by 20% among its 54 campuses located throughout the state (28.5M SF total) by the year 2020.

B3 Benchmarking helped Minnesota State College and Universities achieve this reduction by:

  • Prioritizing and executing energy audits and recommissioning work across 33 campuses
  • Prioritizing building project repair and replacement based on guaranteed energy savings, thereby freeing up money for other potential projects
