How has Sundance Apartments's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 6 California disclosures for Sundance Apartments, covering report years 2019–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score was 92 in both 2020 and 2024. Site EUI moved from 3.5 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 47.3 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 1251% increase. Reported emissions went from 12 tCO₂e to 179 tCO₂e over the same span (up 1377%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 92 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 92 means the building performs better than about 92% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 92 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. Sundance Apartments's 47.3 kBtu/ft² across 62,559 sq ft works out to about 3 billion Btu (867 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 345,368 kWh of electricity and 18,935 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Sundance Apartments to report its energy use?
