Its site EUI of 4.4 kBtu/ft² is about 92% below the average of 56.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 91% below the group average of 3.6 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 7,868 sq ft, it is about 95% below the average floor area of 151,937 sq ft for those buildings. Its 1987 construction date is close to the group's average year built (1985). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².

What does a site EUI of 4.4 kBtu/ft² mean?

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. 3069 Research's 4.4 kBtu/ft² across 7,868 sq ft works out to about 0 billion Btu (10 MWh-equivalent) in 2018. The disclosure also reports 10,261 kWh of electricity for the year.
