How does William Import compare with other distribution center buildings in California?
The latest disclosures cover 3,121 distribution center buildings in California, out of 40,029 buildings citywide. William Import's ENERGY STAR score of 95 compares with an average of 67 across the 2,485 that report a score; it scores higher than 78% of them and lower than 19%. Its site EUI of 3.9 kBtu/ft² is about 80% below the average of 19.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 80% below the group average of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 150,000 sq ft, it is about 37% below the average floor area of 238,298 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1984, 10 years earlier than the group's average year built (1994). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,082 distribution center buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 24.2 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 95 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 95 means the building performs better than about 95% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 95 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. William Import's 3.9 kBtu/ft² across 150,000 sq ft works out to about 0.6 billion Btu (171 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. The disclosure also reports 172,613 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires William Import to report its energy use?
William Import 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:24589223:2024).
