How has Public Safety Building's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 California disclosures for Public Safety Building, covering report years 2019, 2020, 2022. Site EUI moved from 201.5 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 89.7 kBtu/ft² (2022), a 55% decrease. Reported emissions went from 924 tCO₂e to 1,063 tCO₂e over the same span (up 15%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 53 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 53 means the building performs better than about 53% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 53 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 22 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. Public Safety Building's 89.7 kBtu/ft² across 185,855 sq ft works out to about 16.7 billion Btu (4,886 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. The disclosure also reports 2,787,586 kWh of electricity and 73,177 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Public Safety Building to report its energy use?
Public Safety Building 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 2022 disclosure (source record california:11286093:2022).
