# Pilotlight

> Pilotlight equips mechanical contractors and consultants with the automation and insights to comply with building performance standards and drive real decarbonization — building by building.

Pilotlight is a compliance platform for Building Performance Standards (BPS),
built by MojoUnited LLC in Seattle, Washington. It is used by mechanical
contractors, energy consultants and building owners to benchmark buildings in
ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, run O&M and Energy Management Plan workflows,
track each building's performance period, and file compliance documentation.
Supported standards today: the Washington Clean Buildings Performance Standard,
the Seattle Building Emissions Performance Standard (BEPS), and the Oregon
Building Performance Standard.

- [Blog](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog): Notes on building performance standards, benchmarking, and the work of getting a portfolio compliant.
- [Compliance for Churches](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/churches): There is no religious or nonprofit exemption — coverage runs on square footage. Here’s what congregations need to know, including the exemptions that do exist.
- [Compliance for Multi-family Buildings](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/multi-family): Multi-family is the exception to the tier pattern — and it comes with the largest incentive available. Here’s what multi-family owners need to know.
- [Compliance for Senior Care Facilities](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/senior-care): Assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing are covered, and this sits alongside health licensing rather than inside it. Most of the work is documenting systems your team already maintains.
- [Compliance for Private & Small Clubs](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/private-clubs): Golf, tennis and country clubs, clubhouses, lodges and member facilities are covered by Washington’s Clean Buildings Performance Standard. Here’s what your club needs to know.
- [Compliance for Office Buildings](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/offices): Offices are the largest group of covered buildings in Washington. Most of the difficulty isn’t the requirements — it’s tenancy: energy data, fit-outs, and what vacancy does to your numbers.
- [Compliance for HOAs and Condo Associations](https://www.pilotlight.ai/owners-and-managers/hoas-condos): Your association is the building owner — and only the space it owns counts. Here’s what condo and HOA boards need to know.
- [Washington Led the Nation on Clean Buildings. On Clean Power, We're Dead Last.](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/washington-clean-power-gap): The first state to require its buildings to clean up is now 50th in adding new wind and solar. Here's why, and what it will take to change.
- [Washington Finally Has a Real Plan for Its Buildings](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/scale-2030-roadmap): The SCALE 2030 Clean Buildings Roadmap turns the state's 2050 climate goals into six levers and sixteen concrete actions. Here's the whole thing, in plain language.
- [One State, Eight Clean Energy Regions](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/one-state-eight-clean-energy-regions): A clean buildings program built for Seattle won't fit Spokane. SCALE 2030's answer is eight regions that adapt one statewide direction to local building stock.
- [The Split Incentive: Climate's Hardest Building Problem](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/the-split-incentive): One in three homes in Washington is a rental. The landlord buys the furnace and the tenant pays the bill, and that single mismatch quietly stalls a third of our housing.
- [The 15-Year Decision Hiding in Every Appliance Swap](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/the-fifteen-year-decision): A furnace installed in 2030 will most likely still be running in 2045. That is the real case for a zero-emission heating standard, and it is more modest than the headlines suggest.
- [A Strong Start, Not the Whole Job](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/a-strong-start-not-the-whole-job): Washington has one of the stronger building performance laws in the country. The catch is that it doesn't reach most buildings — and SCALE 2030 names that gap directly.
- [Notes from the Founders Summit at 9Zero Seattle](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/9zero-founders-summit): Pacific Northwest Climate Week, a conversation with StepChange's Ben Eidelson, and a reminder that building a startup does not have to be a solitary pursuit.
- [You Can't Rebate Your Way Out of Three Million Buildings](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/you-cant-rebate-your-way-out): A rebate here, a voluntary program there. The appeal is understandable, but it is the wrong-sized tool for a state with more than three million buildings.
- [Washington Finally Has a Plan for Its Buildings](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/washington-finally-has-a-plan): A fact from Bill Gates's climate book sent Jeff looking for a plan — not a pledge, not a target pinned to a distant year. This April, Washington finally got one.
- [The Missing Piece in Building Performance Is Not a Technology](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/boise-eex-2026-connective-tissue): Three days at the 2026 Energy Efficiency Exchange in Boise, and one overarching observation: the industry has built a lot of good pieces. What it has not yet built is the layer that connects them.
- [A Thesis, Built](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/a-thesis-built): Mike Jobes wrote a student thesis on the alleyways of Pioneer Square. Rail Spur is essentially that thesis built.
- [Past the Easy Buttons](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/past-the-easy-buttons): Overlake was looking at tens of millions of dollars to reach compliance. A partnership cut that by roughly 80 percent, with a payback under two years.
- [The Utility at the Center of It](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/the-utility-at-the-center-of-it): Seattle City Light pays for whole-building performance rather than individual upgrades — the same measurement Washington’s compliance regime runs on.
- [Efficiency and Emissions Are Not the Same Goal](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/efficiency-and-emissions): A building can get more efficient and still run on fossil fuels. That gap is exactly why Seattle BEPS exists alongside the state standard.
- [Same Plant, Same Tunnels, Different Fuel](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/same-plant-same-tunnels-different-fuel): UW has heated its campus from a central plant since the early 1900s. That same infrastructure is now the foundation of a $1.6 billion decarbonization effort.
- [The Last Crusade](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/the-last-crusade): Perry England started turning wrenches in 1985. Forty years later he is arguing that the built environment cannot decarbonize on willpower alone — it needs capital.
- [The Math Is Working](https://www.pilotlight.ai/blog/the-math-is-working): People assume sustainable buildings are a luxury affordable housing cannot afford. Laura Franke has spent her career proving otherwise.
