Book excerpt: "From 1998 to 2004, the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) managed an initiative to transform the building commissioning market in the Northwest. The initiative aimed to make commissioning standard practice in public buildings and to create a standardized professional certification body for commissioning providers. To assess the outcomes of the initiative, NEEA began long-term monitoring and tracking of the commissioning market in 2005. The 2016 study finds that the population of certified commissioning providers and firms offering commissioning services is growing. In 2015, there were 75 firms performing commissioning in the Northwest. These 75 firms carried out more than 26 million square feet of new building commissioning and nearly 37 million square feet of existing building commissioning in the region. Market penetration of new building commissioning across the region was 49 percent. As in previous years, market penetration for all types of commissioning was higher in Oregon and Washington than in Idaho and Montana. As part of this year’s study, evaluators estimated the baseline market share of commissioned floor space and found that in 2015, 52 percent of new building commissioned space and 62 percent of existing building commissioned space would have occurred without NEEA intervention. The study recommends future research to improve market size estimates, increase survey response rate, and to better track the population of commissioning providers "--Publisher's description (viewed September 23, 2016).
