What does an ENERGY STAR score of 38 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 38 means the building performs better than about 38% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 38 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 37 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. Los Angeles Ca Hilt's 100.4 kBtu/ft² across 146,217 sq ft works out to about 14.7 billion Btu (4,302 MWh-equivalent) in 2018. The disclosure also reports 2,084,823 kWh of electricity and 75,160 therms of natural gas for the year.
