How does Clarendon compare with other multifamily housing buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 10,630 multifamily housing buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Clarendon's ENERGY STAR score of 96 compares with an average of 82 across the 9,612 that report a score; it scores higher than 60% of them and lower than 37%. Its site EUI of 33.3 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 34.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.1 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 2.1 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 335,000 sq ft, it is about 122% above the average floor area of 150,919 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2020, 32 years later than the group's average year built (1988). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 59,945 multifamily housing buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 70 and a site EUI of 59.0 kBtu/ft².
How has Clarendon's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 5 California disclosures for Clarendon, covering report years 2020–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 70 in 2020 to 96 in 2024 (+26 points). Site EUI moved from 44.0 kBtu/ft² (2020) to 33.3 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 24% decrease. Reported emissions went from 914 tCO₂e to 690 tCO₂e over the same span (down 24%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 96 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 96 means the building performs better than about 96% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 96 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. Clarendon's 33.3 kBtu/ft² across 335,000 sq ft works out to about 11.2 billion Btu (3,269 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 1,849,146 kWh of electricity and 51,085 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Clarendon to report its energy use?
Clarendon reports under AB 802 (Public Resources Code §25402.10), the legal basis of California's Building Energy Benchmarking Program (statewide), which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2024 disclosure (source record california:16866310:2024).
