How does 125-75 Binney ST compare with other laboratory buildings in Cambridge?
The latest disclosures cover 88 laboratory buildings in Cambridge, out of 902 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 1.9 kBtu/ft² is about 99% below the average of 272.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 388,433 sq ft, it is about twice the average floor area of 181,468 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2015, 31 years later than the group's average year built (1984). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 795 laboratory buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 29 and a site EUI of 231.7 kBtu/ft².
How has 125-75 Binney ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Cambridge disclosures for 125-75 Binney ST, covering report years 2015–2024. Site EUI moved from 157.1 kBtu/ft² (2017) to 1.9 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 99% decrease. Reported emissions went from 1,498 tCO₂e to 49 tCO₂e over the same span (down 97%).
What does a site EUI of 1.9 kBtu/ft² mean?
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. 125-75 Binney ST's 1.9 kBtu/ft² across 388,433 sq ft works out to about 0.7 billion Btu (216 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 4.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 135,797 kWh of electricity, 2,898 therms of natural gas and 6,021 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 125-75 Binney ST to report its energy use?
125-75 Binney ST 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:B1122:2024). 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).
