What does an ENERGY STAR score of 73 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 73 means the building performs better than about 73% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 73 falls in band B — above median (70–84). It sits 2 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. Lake Park Plaza Condominium Association's 66.5 kBtu/ft² across 520,635 sq ft works out to about 34.6 billion Btu (10,147 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 102.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 2,854,154 kWh of electricity and 248,950 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Lake Park Plaza Condominium Association to report its energy use?
