As a part of its 80x50 Climate Action Plan, the City and County of Denver
Set a goal to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 80% by 2050. In response to this overarching target, Denver set sector-specific goals to establish a clear path to 2050 with a strong emphasis on measurable carbon reductions from all key sectors. Denver determined that commercial and multifamily buildings produce 51% of local GHG emissions, the largest contributor of any sector. To combat these emissions, Denver set the goal to reduce energy consumption in commercial buildings 10% by 2020, 30% by 2030, and 50% by 2050. It also set a related goal to reduce heating emissions 50% by 2040.

Since 2017, buildings measuring 25,000 square feet or larger must annually assess their energy performance using ENERGY STAR® Portfolio Manager and report it to Denver.
