How does Mbi San Jose compare with other distribution center buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 3,121 distribution center buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Mbi San Jose's ENERGY STAR score of 39 compares with an average of 67 across the 2,485 that report a score; it scores higher than 20% of them and lower than 79%. Its site EUI of 32.3 kBtu/ft² is about 63% above the average of 19.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.2 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 69% above the group average of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 78,634 sq ft, it is about 67% below the average floor area of 238,298 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1999, 5 years later than the group's average year built (1994). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,082 distribution center buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 24.2 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 39 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 39 means the building performs better than about 39% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 39 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 36 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. Mbi San Jose's 32.3 kBtu/ft² across 78,634 sq ft works out to about 2.5 billion Btu (744 MWh-equivalent) in 2019. The disclosure also reports 596,352 kWh of electricity and 5,595 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Mbi San Jose to report its energy use?
Mbi San Jose 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 2019 disclosure (source record california:11646223:2019).
