Its site EUI of 108.1 kBtu/ft² is about 51% above the average of 71.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 6.5 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 41% above the group average of 4.6 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 51,483 sq ft, it is about 73% below the average floor area of 189,524 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1968, 23 years earlier than the group's average year built (1991). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 472 refrigerated warehouse buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 52 and a site EUI of 76.3 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 11 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 11 means the building performs better than about 11% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 11 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 64 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. 2311 Kruse Drive's 108.1 kBtu/ft² across 51,483 sq ft works out to about 5.6 billion Btu (1,631 MWh-equivalent) in 2020. The disclosure also reports 1,612,953 kWh of electricity and 522 therms of natural gas for the year.
