Mark Jewell

Mark Jewell founded RealWinWin in early 2001 to help owners and operators of commercial real estate discover and apply energy-related best practices. Mark has been involved in the real estate industry for more than 20 years and in the energy efficiency business for over 15 years. His company presently works with building owners and managers who collectively control nearly one billion square feet of commercial real estate; electric and gas utilities; energy-efficiency-focused non-profits; and, other agencies. Mark is a frequent speaker and author on topics related to creating value at the intersection of energy engineering, property management, leasing, appraisal and real estate finance.

Prior to RealWinWin, Mark founded and ran EEFG, an energy-efficiency consultancy that designed upgrades for more than 350 buildings. Earlier in his career, Mark served as Senior Vice President for a major commercial real estate investment firm in California. Starting in 1994, Mark worked closely with the US Environmental Protection Agency and was instrumental in creating and promoting EPA’s ENERGY STAR Buildings for Commercial Real Estate program. During the course of that assignment, Mark helped create software that allocates the costs and benefits of energy-efficiency upgrades in income properties. On the strength of this software, he successfully recruited building owners and managers representing more than a billion square feet of commercial real estate into the ENERGY STAR program.

Mark holds a BS degree in Economics with a specialization in Finance from The Wharton School of Finance and Commerce at the University of Pennsylvania.
