How has 675 W Kendall Street's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Cambridge disclosures for 675 W Kendall Street, covering report years 2015–2024. Site EUI moved from 263.8 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 264.9 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 0% increase. Reported emissions went from 5,778 tCO₂e to 5,706 tCO₂e over the same span (down 1%).
What does a site EUI of 264.9 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. 675 W Kendall Street's 264.9 kBtu/ft² across 311,279 sq ft works out to about 82.5 billion Btu (24,166 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 532.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 12,212,640 kWh of electricity, 8,887 therms of natural gas and 10,961 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 675 W Kendall Street to report its energy use?
675 W Kendall Street 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:B1423:2024). 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).
