How has Creekside Elementary's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 California disclosures for Creekside Elementary, covering report years 2022–2023. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 98 in 2022 to 96 in 2023 (-2 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 98. Site EUI moved from 29.6 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 31.7 kBtu/ft² (2023), an 7% increase. Reported emissions went from 64 tCO₂e to 77 tCO₂e over the same span (up 20%).
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. Creekside Elementary's 31.7 kBtu/ft² across 71,715 sq ft works out to about 2.3 billion Btu (666 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 55,986 kWh of electricity and 11,925 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Creekside Elementary to report its energy use?
