How does 30301-30361 Whipple Road compare with other distribution center buildings in California?

Its site EUI of 1.3 kBtu/ft² is about 93% below the average of 19.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.1 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 95% below the group average of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 77,903 sq ft, it is about 67% below the average floor area of 238,298 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1979, 15 years earlier than the group's average year built (1994). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,082 distribution center buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 24.2 kBtu/ft².
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. 30301-30361 Whipple Road's 1.3 kBtu/ft² across 77,903 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (30 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 23,393 kWh of electricity and 106 therms of natural gas for the year.
