How has Holly Courts's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 6 California disclosures for Holly Courts, covering report years 2019–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 95 in 2019 to 99 in 2024 (+4 points). Site EUI moved from 56.3 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 44.2 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 21% decrease. Reported emissions went from 170 tCO₂e to 135 tCO₂e over the same span (down 21%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 99 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 99 means the building performs better than about 99% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 99 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. Holly Courts's 44.2 kBtu/ft² across 51,723 sq ft works out to about 2.3 billion Btu (670 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 247,383 kWh of electricity and 14,824 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Holly Courts to report its energy use?
