Its ENERGY STAR score went from 82 in 2018 to 80 in 2024 (-2 points); its best year on file was 2019, at 88. Site EUI moved from 62.4 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 52.0 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 17% decrease. Reported emissions went from 583 tCO₂e to 459 tCO₂e over the same span (down 21%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 80 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 80 means the building performs better than about 80% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 80 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. 800 Newport Center's 52.0 kBtu/ft² across 142,333 sq ft works out to about 7.4 billion Btu (2,169 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 1,514,737 kWh of electricity and 21,807 therms of natural gas for the year.
