What Does a BEP Do?

Certified Business Energy Professionals understand how important energy decisions affect the organization’s energy-consuming systems, how these systems affect employee productivity and how these decisions can affect the organization’s financial profitability and bottom line. They can present and justify these programs and projects for approval, and more importantly, understand how to compare projects that compete and make objective decisions on which projects should move forward with approval.
