Its ENERGY STAR score went from 89 in 2023 to 81 in 2024 (-8 points); its best year on file was 2023, at 89. Site EUI moved from 42.7 kBtu/ft² (2023) to 46.7 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 9% increase. Reported emissions went from 99 tCO₂e to 112 tCO₂e over the same span (up 13%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 81 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 81 means the building performs better than about 81% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 81 falls in band B — above median (70–84). 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. John Wash Elementary School's 46.7 kBtu/ft² across 54,393 sq ft works out to about 2.5 billion Btu (744 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 385,005 kWh of electricity and 4,692 therms of natural gas for the year.
