• Energy Audit Requirements:
  Prescribed frequency and scope of energy audits, including reporting formats and submission timelines.
• Energy Intensity Label for Buildings:
  Requirements for designated buildings to obtain, display, and maintain energy intensity labels based on prescribed performance standards.
