How has 310-320 Rindge Avenue's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Cambridge disclosures for 310-320 Rindge Avenue, covering report years 2015–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 100 in 2016 to 97 in 2024 (-3 points); its best year on file was 2016, at 100. Site EUI moved from 5.6 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 26.8 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 379% increase.
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 97 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 97 means the building performs better than about 97% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 97 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 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. 310-320 Rindge Avenue's 26.8 kBtu/ft² across 141,906 sq ft works out to about 3.8 billion Btu (1,115 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 55.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 637,831 kWh of electricity, 16,294 therms of natural gas and 4,385 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 310-320 Rindge Avenue to report its energy use?
