Its site EUI of 257.4 kBtu/ft² is about 42% above the average of 181.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 15.2 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 37% above the group average of 11.1 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 200,280 sq ft, it is about 65% above the average floor area of 121,485 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2004, 12 years later than the group's average year built (1992). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 795 laboratory buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 29 and a site EUI of 231.7 kBtu/ft².
How has Gladstone Institutes's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 7 California disclosures for Gladstone Institutes, covering report years 2018–2024. Site EUI moved from 275.4 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 257.4 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 7% decrease. Reported emissions went from 3,386 tCO₂e to 3,047 tCO₂e over the same span (down 10%).
What does a site EUI of 257.4 kBtu/ft² mean?
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. Gladstone Institutes's 257.4 kBtu/ft² across 200,280 sq ft works out to about 51.6 billion Btu (15,108 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 7,071,046 kWh of electricity and 272,263 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Gladstone Institutes to report its energy use?
Gladstone Institutes 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:2894663:2024).
