What does a site EUI of 47.4 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. 8-10 Mt Auburn St's 47.4 kBtu/ft² across 53,324 sq ft works out to about 2.5 billion Btu (741 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 107.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 511,664 kWh of electricity, 7,817 therms of natural gas and 865 thousand gallons of water for the year.
