How has Walt Disney Elementary's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 California disclosures for Walt Disney Elementary, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 56 in 2022 to 68 in 2024 (+12 points).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 68 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 68 means the building performs better than about 68% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 68 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 7 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. 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. Walt Disney Elementary's 32.0 kBtu/ft² across 54,479 sq ft works out to about 1.7 billion Btu (511 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 349,430 kWh of electricity and 5,169 therms of natural gas for the year.
