How has Villa Careena's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 2 California disclosures for Villa Careena, covering report years 2023–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 89 in 2023 to 94 in 2024 (+5 points). Site EUI moved from 32.7 kBtu/ft² (2023) to 30.6 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 6% decrease. Reported emissions went from 123 tCO₂e to 109 tCO₂e over the same span (down 12%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 94 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 94 means the building performs better than about 94% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 94 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. Villa Careena's 30.6 kBtu/ft² across 57,630 sq ft works out to about 1.8 billion Btu (517 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 291,081 kWh of electricity and 8,100 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Villa Careena to report its energy use?
