Quail Run Elementary's ENERGY STAR score of 75 compares with an average of 74 across the 2,016 that report a score; it scores higher than 41% of them and lower than 57%. Its site EUI of 30.5 kBtu/ft² is about 12% below the average of 34.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 15% below the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 68,051 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 129,123 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2005, 29 years later than the group's average year built (1976). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 6,548 K-12 school buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 52.7 kBtu/ft².
How has Quail Run Elementary's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 California disclosures for Quail Run Elementary, covering report years 2020–2021. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 92 in 2020 to 75 in 2021 (-17 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 92. Site EUI moved from 22.4 kBtu/ft² (2020) to 30.5 kBtu/ft² (2021), an 36% increase. Reported emissions went from 86 tCO₂e to 118 tCO₂e over the same span (up 38%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 75 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 75 means the building performs better than about 75% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 75 falls in band B — above median (70–84). 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. Quail Run Elementary's 30.5 kBtu/ft² across 68,051 sq ft works out to about 2.1 billion Btu (608 MWh-equivalent) in 2021. The disclosure also reports 352,160 kWh of electricity and 8,586 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Quail Run Elementary to report its energy use?
Quail Run Elementary 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 2021 disclosure (source record california:19917263:2021).
