The Building Energy
Retrofit Incentive (BERI)
What Is BERI?
The Building Energy Retrofit Incentive (BERI) is an Oregon funding program that helps commercial building owners pay for energy efficiency upgrades and retrofit projects required for compliance with the Oregon Building Performance Standard (BPS).
The program supports projects that improve building performance, reduce energy consumption, and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
What Projects Can BERI Support?
HVAC Upgrades
Replace or improve heating, ventilation, and cooling systems to increase efficiency and reduce energy waste.
Lighting Improvements
Upgrade to high-efficiency LED lighting systems and smart lighting controls.
Building Automation Systems
Install or optimize smart building controls for improved energy monitoring and operational efficiency.
Energy Efficiency Retrofits
Implement building envelope improvements and system upgrades that reduce energy use intensity.
Electrification Projects
Transition from fossil fuel-based systems to electric technologies that support decarbonization goals.
Other Qualifying Improvements
Additional retrofit measures that contribute to Oregon BPS compliance and energy performance improvements.
