How has Pauba Valley Elementary School's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 California disclosures for Pauba Valley Elementary School, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 99 in 2022 to 96 in 2024 (-3 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 99. Site EUI moved from 13.9 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 15.1 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 9% increase. Reported emissions went from 74 tCO₂e to 75 tCO₂e over the same span (up 2%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 96 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 96 means the building performs better than about 96% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 96 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. Pauba Valley Elementary School's 15.1 kBtu/ft² across 78,236 sq ft works out to about 1.2 billion Btu (346 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 274,589 kWh of electricity and 2,419 therms of natural gas for the year.
