How does Mcclatchy Hall compare with other office buildings in California?

The latest disclosures cover 6,214 office buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Mcclatchy Hall's ENERGY STAR score of 93 compares with an average of 75 across the 4,912 that report a score; it scores higher than 72% of them and lower than 25%. Its site EUI of 21.9 kBtu/ft² is about 61% below the average of 56.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 60% below the group average of 3.6 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 69,474 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 151,937 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1899, 86 years earlier than the group's average year built (1985). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².

How has Mcclatchy Hall's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 6 California disclosures for Mcclatchy Hall, covering report years 2019–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 86 in 2019 to 93 in 2024 (+7 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 98. Site EUI moved from 43.0 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 21.9 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 49% decrease. Reported emissions went from 194 tCO₂e to 101 tCO₂e over the same span (down 48%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 93 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 93 means the building performs better than about 93% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 93 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. Mcclatchy Hall's 21.9 kBtu/ft² across 69,474 sq ft works out to about 1.5 billion Btu (446 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 446,166 kWh of electricity for the year.

Which law requires Mcclatchy Hall to report its energy use?

Mcclatchy Hall 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 2024 disclosure (source record california:10924630:2024). AB 802 requires every California commercial building over 50,000 sq ft to report energy use to the CEC annually; the CEC publicly discloses the results statewide.
