How has 901 Gilman St's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 4 Berkeley disclosures for 901 Gilman St, covering report years 2022–2025. Site EUI moved from 82.1 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 91.6 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 12% increase.
What does a site EUI of 91.6 kBtu/ft² mean?
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. 901 Gilman St's 91.6 kBtu/ft² across 115,034 sq ft works out to about 10.5 billion Btu (3,088 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 162.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,284,330 kWh of electricity and 61,507 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 901 Gilman St to report its energy use?
901 Gilman St reports under BESO (BMC Chapter 19.81), the legal basis of Berkeley's Building Emissions Saving Ordinance, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2025 disclosure (source record berkeley:4200:2025). Berkeley's BESO requires annual benchmarking for commercial and multifamily buildings of 15,000 sq ft or more, with energy assessments at time of listing and every five years for buildings of 25,000 sq ft or more.
