How has Continental Apartments's energy performance changed over time?

Its ENERGY STAR score went from 80 in 2019 to 82 in 2022 (+2 points); its best year on file was 2021, at 87. Site EUI moved from 38.4 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 35.9 kBtu/ft² (2022), a 7% decrease.

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 82 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 82 means the building performs better than about 82% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 82 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. Continental Apartments's 35.9 kBtu/ft² across 51,127 sq ft works out to about 1.8 billion Btu (538 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. The disclosure also reports 258,702 kWh of electricity and 9,538 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Continental Apartments to report its energy use?
