George S Chen Corp's ENERGY STAR score of 98 compares with an average of 67 across the 2,485 that report a score; it scores higher than 86% of them and lower than 11%. Its site EUI of 1.8 kBtu/ft² is about 91% below the average of 19.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.1 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 92% below the group average of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 84,600 sq ft, it is about 64% below the average floor area of 238,298 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2007, 13 years later than the group's average year built (1994). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,082 distribution center buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 24.2 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 98 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 98 means the building performs better than about 98% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 98 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. George S Chen Corp's 1.8 kBtu/ft² across 84,600 sq ft works out to about 0.2 billion Btu (45 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 43,962 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires George S Chen Corp to report its energy use?
George S Chen Corp 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 2023 disclosure (source record california:33913972:2023). AB 802 requires every California commercial building over 50,000 sq ft to report energy use to the CEC annually; the CEC publicly discloses the results statewide.
