Its ENERGY STAR score went from 74 in 2015 to 81 in 2023 (+7 points); its best year on file was 2016, at 87. Site EUI moved from 65.8 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 61.1 kBtu/ft² (2023), a 7% decrease.

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 81 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 81 means the building performs better than about 81% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 81 falls in band B — above median (70–84). 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 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. City Centre Condominium Association's 61.1 kBtu/ft² across 390,000 sq ft works out to about 23.8 billion Btu (6,984 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 86.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,555,913 kWh of electricity and 133,767 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires City Centre Condominium Association to report its energy use?
City Centre Condominium Association reports under the Building Energy Use Benchmarking Ordinance, the legal basis of the Chicago Energy Benchmarking program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2023 disclosure (source record chicago:236031:2023).
