How does 210 BENT ST compare with other buildings in Cambridge?
The latest disclosures cover 902 benchmarked buildings in Cambridge. Its site EUI of 310.1 kBtu/ft² is about 165% above the average of 117.2 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 142,919 sq ft, it is about 24% above the average floor area of 114,869 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1972, 10 years later than the group's average year built (1962). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 136 other - technology/science buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 21 and a site EUI of 150.2 kBtu/ft².
How has 210 BENT ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Cambridge disclosures for 210 BENT ST, covering report years 2015–2024. Site EUI moved from 330.0 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 310.1 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 6% decrease. Reported emissions went from 3,572 tCO₂e to 3,163 tCO₂e over the same span (down 11%).
What does a site EUI of 310.1 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. 210 BENT ST's 310.1 kBtu/ft² across 142,919 sq ft works out to about 44.3 billion Btu (12,989 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 842.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 12,379,178 kWh of electricity, 19,907 therms of natural gas and 3,942 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 210 BENT ST to report its energy use?
210 BENT 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:B1159:2024). 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).
