How does Hiram Johnson High School compare with other K-12 school buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 2,128 K-12 school buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Hiram Johnson High School's ENERGY STAR score of 24 compares with an average of 74 across the 2,016 that report a score; it scores higher than 5% of them and lower than 95%. Its site EUI of 66.2 kBtu/ft² is about twice the average of 34.6 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 twice the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 244,713 sq ft, it is about 90% above the average floor area of 129,123 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1954, 22 years earlier than the group's average year built (1976). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 6,548 K-12 school buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 52.7 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 24 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 24 means the building performs better than about 24% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 24 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 51 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. Hiram Johnson High School's 66.2 kBtu/ft² across 244,713 sq ft works out to about 16.2 billion Btu (4,748 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. The disclosure also reports 2,329,891 kWh of electricity and 79,954 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Hiram Johnson High School to report its energy use?
Hiram Johnson High School 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 2022 disclosure (source record california:4124910:2022).
