How does Ontario Volkswagen compare with other vehicle dealership buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 141 vehicle dealership buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Ontario Volkswagen's ENERGY STAR score of 68 compares with an average of 68 across the 122 that report a score; it scores higher than 35% of them and lower than 63%. Its site EUI of 39.5 kBtu/ft² is about 20% below the average of 49.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.6 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 19% below the group average of 3.2 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 26,486 sq ft, it is about 70% below the average floor area of 89,700 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2003, 21 years later than the group's average year built (1982). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 318 vehicle dealership buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 57 and a site EUI of 62.8 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 68 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 68 means the building performs better than about 68% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 68 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 7 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. Ontario Volkswagen's 39.5 kBtu/ft² across 26,486 sq ft works out to about 1 billion Btu (307 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 307,876 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires Ontario Volkswagen to report its energy use?
Ontario Volkswagen 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 2023 disclosure (source record california:36353473:2023).
