Retroficiency offers a quick solution for building energy audits
As a private equity investor, Bennett Fisher spent 10 years
buying and selling properties. He found that the 30-day escrow
period was not enough time to properly assess the buildings'
energy efficiency, unless buyers spent large sums on the
process.  He also kept hearing that owners, spurred by their
investors or tenants, wanted to make their buildings more energy
efficient.  Energy efficiency evaluation for commercial
buildings typically is a drawn-out, costly process where
building professionals spend long periods walking the building
as they assess and research ways to save energy.  With more than
one-third of buildings in the U.S eligible for retrofits, Fisher
thought that there weren't enough auditors and engineers to tap
the potential and that there had to be a more efficient way of
going about it.  "There's a $400 billion market for retrofits
and only a portion of that is looked at today," he said.  This
