How has Morrison Hall's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 California disclosures for Morrison Hall, covering report years 2018–2019. Site EUI moved from 16.4 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 16.1 kBtu/ft² (2019), a 2% decrease. Reported emissions went from 47 tCO₂e to 44 tCO₂e over the same span (down 7%).
What does a site EUI of 16.1 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. Morrison Hall's 16.1 kBtu/ft² across 40,706 sq ft works out to about 0.7 billion Btu (192 MWh-equivalent) in 2019. The disclosure also reports 192,631 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires Morrison Hall to report its energy use?
Morrison 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 2019 disclosure (source record california:6810461:2019).
