Graces Church Midtown's ENERGY STAR score of 33 compares with an average of 69 across the 212 that report a score; it scores higher than 12% of them and lower than 87%. Its site EUI of 35.7 kBtu/ft² is about 41% below the average of 60.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 25,803 sq ft, it is about 90% below the average floor area of 256,840 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1980, 5 years earlier than the group's average year built (1985). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 2,307 commercial buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 76 and a site EUI of 51.3 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 33 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 33 means the building performs better than about 33% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 33 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 42 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In Atlanta, 58% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. Graces Church Midtown's 35.7 kBtu/ft² across 25,803 sq ft works out to about 0.9 billion Btu (270 MWh-equivalent) in 2020.
Which law requires Graces Church Midtown to report its energy use?
