Court Plaza Building's ENERGY STAR score of 61 compares with an average of 75 across the 4,912 that report a score; it scores higher than 22% of them and lower than 77%. Its site EUI of 67.3 kBtu/ft² is about 19% above the average of 56.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 4.0 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 12% above the group average of 3.6 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 54,249 sq ft, it is about 64% below the average floor area of 151,937 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1963, 22 years earlier than the group's average year built (1985). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 61 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 61 means the building performs better than about 61% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 61 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 14 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. 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. Court Plaza Building's 67.3 kBtu/ft² across 54,249 sq ft works out to about 3.7 billion Btu (1,070 MWh-equivalent) in 2019. The disclosure also reports 535,024 kWh of electricity and 18,323 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Court Plaza Building to report its energy use?

Court Plaza Building 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 2019 disclosure (source record california:11686816:2019).
