How does Physics And Astrophysics compare with other laboratory buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 308 laboratory buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 141.7 kBtu/ft² is about 22% below the average of 181.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 9.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 15% below the group average of 11.1 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 68,831 sq ft, it is about 43% below the average floor area of 121,485 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2006, 14 years later than the group's average year built (1992). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 795 laboratory buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 29 and a site EUI of 231.7 kBtu/ft².
How has Physics And Astrophysics's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 6 California disclosures for Physics And Astrophysics, covering report years 2019–2024. Site EUI moved from 237.8 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 141.7 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 40% decrease. Reported emissions went from 1,060 tCO₂e to 647 tCO₂e over the same span (down 39%).
What does a site EUI of 141.7 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. Physics And Astrophysics's 141.7 kBtu/ft² across 68,831 sq ft works out to about 9.8 billion Btu (2,858 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 2,858,260 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires Physics And Astrophysics to report its energy use?
Physics And Astrophysics 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 2024 disclosure (source record california:10924554:2024). AB 802 requires every California commercial building over 50,000 sq ft to report energy use to the CEC annually; the CEC publicly discloses the results statewide.
