What does an ENERGY STAR score of 21 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 21 means the building performs better than about 21% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 21 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 54 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. 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. 1635 Rollins Rd (Health Svcs)'s 27.6 kBtu/ft² across 56,899 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (460 MWh-equivalent) in 2018. The disclosure also reports 443,669 kWh of electricity and 592 therms of natural gas for the year.
