How has Bridgeport Homes's energy performance changed over time?

Reported emissions went from 698 tCO₂e to 922 tCO₂e over the same span (up 32%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 4 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 4 means the building performs better than about 4% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 4 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 71 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In Chicago, 35% 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. Bridgeport Homes's 113.6 kBtu/ft² across 110,616 sq ft works out to about 12.6 billion Btu (3,683 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 170.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 949,747 kWh of electricity and 93,284 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Bridgeport Homes to report its energy use?
