- The combined annual energy costs for U.S. commercial buildings and industrial facilities is $400 billion
- The combined percentage of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions generated by commercial buildings and industrial facilities is 45%
- HVAC systems account for 39% of the energy used in commercial buildings in the United States
Technology & Data
Data Centers, Mission Critical Facilities
- There are nearly 510,000 data centers worldwide
- Globally, data centers occupy nearly 286 million-square-feet of space, which is equivalent to about 6,000 football fields
- From 2005 to 2010, electricity used by data centers worldwide increased by about 56%, and now represents about 1.5% of global electricity use
- A 50,000-square-foot data center consumes about 5 megawatts of power
- Servers in U.S. data centers use as much power as 5 million homes
- Data centers consume up to 40 times more power per square foot than anything else in the asset portfolio
Medical Facilities
- HVAC systems account for 40–60% of total energy consumption in hospitals. (Source: U.S. Department of Energy)
- Hospitals use 2.5 times more energy per square foot than typical commercial buildings, largely due to intensive HVAC and ventilation demands.
Specialized Manufacturing
- HVAC systems account for 30% to 70% of energy use in specialized manufacturing facilities, depending on process needs. (Source: U.S. Department of Energy, CBECS)
- Cleanrooms, common in pharmaceuticals and microelectronics, consume 50–100 times more energy per square foot than standard office space—largely due to HVAC.
Educational
- HVAC accounts for 30% to 50% of total energy use in educational buildings.(Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration – CBECS)
- U.S. K–12 schools spend $8 billion annually on energy, second only to salaries.
- Of this, heating and cooling make up 60% of utility costs
Government
- HVAC systems account for 40%–60% of total energy use in government buildings. (Source: U.S. Department of Energy – CBECS)

Correctional Facilities
- HVAC accounts for 40%–60% of total energy use in correctional facilities.(Source: U.S. Department of Energy)
- Prisons operate 24/7/365, with dense occupancy, so energy use per square foot is significantly higher than typical commercial buildings.
