How has Domain Condominium's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 Chicago disclosures for Domain Condominium, covering report years 2016–2017. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 62 in 2016 to 78 in 2017 (+16 points). Site EUI moved from 73.7 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 64.3 kBtu/ft² (2017), a 13% decrease. Reported emissions went from 3,440 tCO₂e to 2,952 tCO₂e over the same span (down 14%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 78 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 78 means the building performs better than about 78% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 78 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. Domain Condominium's 64.3 kBtu/ft² across 475,800 sq ft works out to about 30.6 billion Btu (8,966 MWh-equivalent) in 2017. Its source EUI of 111.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 2,954,037 kWh of electricity and 204,913 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Domain Condominium to report its energy use?
Domain Condominium 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 2017 disclosure (source record chicago:239679:2017). Covered buildings that fail to benchmark and report face fines of up to $100 plus $25 per day of violation under the ordinance.
