What does an ENERGY STAR score of 90 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 90 means the building performs better than about 90% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 90 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. 8724-Richmond-Garrity's 33.6 kBtu/ft² across 54,439 sq ft works out to about 1.8 billion Btu (536 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 326,562 kWh of electricity and 7,340 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 8724-Richmond-Garrity to report its energy use?
