Maryland’s Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS) present both a regulatory challenge and an opportunity to improve energy performance at scale. This presentation will highlight how the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory is managing BEPS compliance across a complex, multi-building campus while aligning regulatory requirements with long-term sustainability and operational goals.
Attendees will gain insight into a real-world approach to establishing energy baselines, coordinating cross-functional teams, leveraging data and performance tracking tools, and developing strategies to meet state requirements while supporting broader decarbonization efforts. This session will offer practical lessons learned and considerations for organizations navigating BEPS compliance in Maryland and similar jurisdictions.
