How has National Center For International Schools's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 7 California disclosures for National Center For International Schools, covering report years 2018–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 93 in 2018 to 95 in 2024 (+2 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 97. Site EUI moved from 35.4 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 27.6 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 22% decrease. Reported emissions went from 366 tCO₂e to 311 tCO₂e over the same span (down 15%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 95 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 95 means the building performs better than about 95% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 95 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. National Center For International Schools's 27.6 kBtu/ft² across 211,425 sq ft works out to about 5.8 billion Btu (1,710 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 556,628 kWh of electricity and 34,781 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires National Center For International Schools to report its energy use?
