What does an ENERGY STAR score of 92 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 92 means the building performs better than about 92% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 92 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. One Rincon Hill Tower Ii &Quot;The Harrison&Quot;'s 28.2 kBtu/ft² across 518,033 sq ft works out to about 14.6 billion Btu (4,281 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 1,978,709 kWh of electricity and 81,529 therms of natural gas for the year.
