What does a site EUI of 101.5 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.

Its source EUI of 172.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 7,907,991 kWh of electricity and 458,596 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Misericordia Home to report its energy use?
