How does 10 Canal Park compare with other office buildings in Cambridge?
The latest disclosures cover 117 office buildings in Cambridge, out of 902 buildings citywide. 10 Canal Park's ENERGY STAR score of 66 compares with an average of 64 across the 94 that report a score; it scores higher than 39% of them and lower than 57%. Its site EUI of 46.2 kBtu/ft² is about 41% below the average of 78.7 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 135,710 sq ft, it is about 12% above the average floor area of 121,167 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1983, 18 years later than the group's average year built (1965). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².
How has 10 Canal Park's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Cambridge disclosures for 10 Canal Park, covering report years 2015–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 53 in 2015 to 66 in 2024 (+13 points); its best year on file was 2018, at 77. Site EUI moved from 83.6 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 46.2 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 45% decrease. Reported emissions went from 623 tCO₂e to 453 tCO₂e over the same span (down 27%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 66 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 66 means the building performs better than about 66% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 66 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 9 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In Cambridge, 50% 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. 10 Canal Park's 46.2 kBtu/ft² across 135,710 sq ft works out to about 6.3 billion Btu (1,837 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 129.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,838,974 kWh of electricity and 955 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 10 Canal Park to report its energy use?
10 Canal Park reports under BEUDO, the legal basis of Cambridge's Building Energy Use Disclosure Ordinance (BEUDO), which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2024 disclosure (source record cambridge:B1739:2024). Cambridge's 2023 BEUDO amendments require non-residential buildings of 100,000+ sq ft to reach net-zero emissions by 2035 (reductions starting 2026) and those of 25,000–100,000 sq ft by 2050 (starting 2030).
