Its site EUI of 1.0 kBtu/ft² is about 95% below the average of 21.7 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.1 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 95% below the group average of 1.4 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 80,010 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 173,929 sq ft for those buildings. Its 1985 construction date is close to the group's average year built (1988). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,723 non-refrigerated warehouse buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 66 and a site EUI of 26.0 kBtu/ft².
How has University Commerce Center #1's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 7 California disclosures for University Commerce Center #1, covering report years 2018–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 92 in 2019 to 100 in 2024 (+8 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 100. Site EUI moved from 8.5 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 1.0 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 88% decrease. Reported emissions went from 48 tCO₂e to 5 tCO₂e over the same span (down 89%).
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. University Commerce Center #1's 1.0 kBtu/ft² across 80,010 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (23 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 24,153 kWh of electricity and 1 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires University Commerce Center #1 to report its energy use?
University Commerce Center #1 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:3927732:2024). 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.
