Its ENERGY STAR score went from 92 in 2019 to 91 in 2023 (-1 points); its best year on file was 2019, at 92. Site EUI moved from 42.2 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 37.9 kBtu/ft² (2023), a 10% decrease.

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 91 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 91 means the building performs better than about 91% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 91 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. 770 L Street (Leed)'s 37.9 kBtu/ft² across 170,519 sq ft works out to about 6.5 billion Btu (1,894 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 1,576,855 kWh of electricity and 10,166 therms of natural gas for the year.
