How does Jet Propulsion Laboratory-1049/55/43-300-Earth & Space Science Laboratory compare with other other buildings in California?

The latest disclosures cover 773 other buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 297.4 kBtu/ft² is about 410% above the average of 58.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 17.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 406% above the group average of 3.5 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 103,904 sq ft, it is about 80% below the average floor area of 511,890 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1986, 13 years later than the group's average year built (1973). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 1,327 other buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 60 and a site EUI of 63.3 kBtu/ft².

What does a site EUI of 297.4 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. Jet Propulsion Laboratory-1049/55/43-300-Earth & Space Science Laboratory's 297.4 kBtu/ft² across 103,904 sq ft works out to about 30.9 billion Btu (9,056 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. The disclosure also reports 4,088,401 kWh of electricity and 166,605 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Jet Propulsion Laboratory-1049/55/43-300-Earth & Space Science Laboratory to report its energy use?
