Royal Towers Apartment Corporation's ENERGY STAR score of 100 compares with an average of 82 across the 9,612 that report a score; it scores higher than 76% of them. Its site EUI of 15.1 kBtu/ft² is about 56% below the average of 34.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.9 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 58% below the group average of 2.1 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 220,000 sq ft, it is about 46% above the average floor area of 150,919 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1963, 25 years earlier than the group's average year built (1988).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 100 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: 100 is the top of the scale. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 100 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. Royal Towers Apartment Corporation's 15.1 kBtu/ft² across 220,000 sq ft works out to about 3.3 billion Btu (974 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 348,784 kWh of electricity and 21,739 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Royal Towers Apartment Corporation to report its energy use?
