How has 1421 Reynolds Ave's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 3 California disclosures for 1421 Reynolds Ave, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 95 in 2022 to 100 in 2024 (+5 points). Site EUI moved from 34.5 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 19.0 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 45% decrease. Reported emissions went from 206 tCO₂e to 120 tCO₂e over the same span (down 42%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 100 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: 100 is the top of the scale. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 100 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. In California, 65% 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. 1421 Reynolds Ave's 19.0 kBtu/ft² across 99,148 sq ft works out to about 1.9 billion Btu (552 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 376,154 kWh of electricity and 6,595 therms of natural gas for the year.
