Abstract: Colorado's real estate industry leaders remain skeptical about the financial benefits of high-performance commercial buildings. A survey and index were developed to understand the industry's perspectives on public policies, programs, and market mechanisms. Additionally, a secondary data analysis was conducted to determine if these buildings command financial benefits for the industry. While national studies reveal financial benefits, the results from Colorado are parallel with the market perception: the financial benefits for high-performance commercial buildings in Colorado are unverifiable at this time, primarily due to limited data sets from existing programs and industry databases. Policy recommendations to improve data availability are included.
