What does a site EUI of 493.0 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. 130 Fawcett Street's 493.0 kBtu/ft² across 30,000 sq ft works out to about 14.8 billion Btu (4,335 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 708.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 959,520 kWh of electricity, 113,722 therms of natural gas and 1,896 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 130 Fawcett Street to report its energy use?
