What does an ENERGY STAR score of 78 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 78 means the building performs better than about 78% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 78 falls in band B — above median (70–84). 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. 70300067 -- Crossroads's 139.0 kBtu/ft² across 51,826 sq ft works out to about 7.2 billion Btu (2,111 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. The disclosure also reports 1,742,449 kWh of electricity and 13,681 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires 70300067 -- Crossroads to report its energy use?
