What does an ENERGY STAR score of 79 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 79 means the building performs better than about 79% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 79 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. 9613-Sunnyvale/Santa Clara's 44.3 kBtu/ft² across 54,132 sq ft works out to about 2.4 billion Btu (703 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 362,180 kWh of electricity and 11,597 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 9613-Sunnyvale/Santa Clara to report its energy use?
