How has San Jose Ca West's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 California disclosures for San Jose Ca West, covering report years 2018–2020. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 79 in 2018 to 85 in 2020 (+6 points).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 85 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 85 means the building performs better than about 85% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 85 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. San Jose Ca West's 38.7 kBtu/ft² across 123,505 sq ft works out to about 4.8 billion Btu (1,401 MWh-equivalent) in 2020. The disclosure also reports 894,205 kWh of electricity and 18,797 therms of natural gas for the year.
