Roadmaps to Energy Efficiency - This site, sponsored by Global Green USA and Environment Now, provides a step-by-step guide to retrofitting commercial properties to improve energy efficiency and reduce operating costs. The site features three approaches, called RoadMaps: do it yourself, hire an energy consultant firm, or work with an energy service company. Each RoadMap is presented as a flowchart that outlines the specific steps of the process and provides direct links to useful information and resources. The site also includes case studies that demonstrate the benefits that have been achieved in buildings throughout the US.
