巴尔莫勒尔学校在2021年的日历年度中被卡尔加里市BenchmarkYYC计划评为表现最佳的K-12学校物业。该奖项表彰改善能源效率和减少温室气体排放的组织和企业。

该学校与63栋类似建筑进行了比较，其总温室气体（GHG）排放强度为每平方米年度39.9公斤CO2(当量)/m2/year，比类别平均值68.2公斤CO2e/m2/year优越了41%。

“我们非常荣幸能获得这一认可，我们将继续努力实现可持续发展框架中设定的温室气体排放和能源强度目标，”设施和环保服务主管丹尼·布雷顿表示。

巴尔莫勒尔学校建于1913年，虽然它是CBE投资组合中最古老的建筑之一，但其厚实的砂岩墙壁以及一些有针对性的保温和建筑封装升级工程都为其整体能源效率的提高做出了贡献。

CBE通过在我们的投资组合中进行各种倡议来管理和减少能源消耗，包括对设施进行节能升级、在学校和系统层面进行公用事业管理，以及通过能源教育和意识宣传活动来吸引员工和学生的参与。

该奖牌将被安装在巴尔莫勒尔学校，作为对CBE对环境模型的持续承诺以及在促进可持续未来方面的领导力的提醒。

首届建筑能源基准奖项于2023年10月26日在与阿尔伯塔州祖绿宝基金会合作的2023年卡尔加里气候研讨会期间颁发。

​Balmoral School was selected as the Top Performing K-12 School Property by The City of Calgary BenchmarkYYC Program for calendar year 2021. The awards recognize organizations and businesses that have improved energy efficiency and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

The school was compared against 63 similar properties and came out with the lowest total greenhouse gas (GHG) emission intensity of 39.9 kg CO2(equivalent)/m2/year, which is 41 per cent better than the category average of 68.2 kg CO2e/m2/year.

“We are grateful to receive this recognition as we continue our work to meet the greenhouse gas emissions and energy intensity targets set out in our Sustainability Framework,” said Dany Breton, superintendent of Facilities and Environmental Services.

Balmoral School was built in 1913, while it is one of the oldest buildings in the CBE portfolio, its thick sandstone walls together with some targeted insulation and building envelope upgrades have contributed to its high overall energy efficiency.

The CBE works to manage and reduce its energy consumption through many initiatives across our portfolio including energy efficient facility upgrades, utility management at a school and system level, and engaging staff and students in energy education and awareness campaigns.

The award plaque will be mounted in Balmoral School as a reminder of CBE’s continued commitment to the environment models and leadership in contributing to a sustainable future.

The first annual Building Energy Benchmarking Awards were presented on Oct. 26, 2023, during the ​2023 Calgary Climate Symposium in partnership with the Alberta Emerald Foundation.
