How has 408 Panama Mall's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 6 California disclosures for 408 Panama Mall, covering report years 2019–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 90 in 2019 to 97 in 2024 (+7 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 97. Site EUI moved from 54.6 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 20.4 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 63% decrease. Reported emissions went from 218 tCO₂e to 84 tCO₂e over the same span (down 61%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 97 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 97 means the building performs better than about 97% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 97 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. 408 Panama Mall's 20.4 kBtu/ft² across 62,186 sq ft works out to about 1.3 billion Btu (372 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 372,459 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires 408 Panama Mall to report its energy use?
