Similar potential exists in industrial and transportation energy use.

The headline is not capitalized and therefore does not refer specifically to a proper name, but instead is a generic description. No error, no necessary correction, but I will clarify the subject line because, you're right, wouldn't want to give your association credit for something good it's NOT doing.

The Canadian Real Estate Association has not made a pledge to cut energy use in office buildings by 2015. As you mention in your post, that pledge has been made by REALpac. A correction to this error would be most appreciated.
