Slater_Ms's ENERGY STAR score of 81 compares with an average of 74 across the 2,016 that report a score; it scores higher than 50% of them and lower than 48%. Its site EUI of 30.8 kBtu/ft² is about 11% 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 1.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 91,702 sq ft, it is about 29% below the average floor area of 129,123 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1980, 4 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 Slater_Ms's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 California disclosures for Slater_Ms, covering report years 2023–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 71 in 2023 to 81 in 2024 (+10 points). Site EUI moved from 35.4 kBtu/ft² (2023) to 30.8 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 13% decrease. Reported emissions went from 206 tCO₂e to 167 tCO₂e over the same span (down 19%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 81 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 81 means the building performs better than about 81% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 81 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. Slater_Ms's 30.8 kBtu/ft² across 91,702 sq ft works out to about 2.8 billion Btu (828 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 375,448 kWh of electricity and 15,419 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Slater_Ms to report its energy use?
Slater_Ms 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:33980379:2024). 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.
