What does an ENERGY STAR score of 4 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 4 means the building performs better than about 4% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 4 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 71 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. 1640 W 190Th St (Dws - Harbor Gateway I & Ii)'s 61.5 kBtu/ft² across 123,345 sq ft works out to about 7.6 billion Btu (2,223 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 580,429 kWh of electricity and 56,070 therms of natural gas for the year.
