How has Park Lincoln By Reside's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 8 Chicago disclosures for Park Lincoln By Reside, covering report years 2016–2023. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 75 in 2016 to 82 in 2023 (+7 points). Site EUI moved from 34.0 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 33.1 kBtu/ft² (2023), a 3% decrease. Reported emissions went from 937 tCO₂e to 649 tCO₂e over the same span (down 31%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 82 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 82 means the building performs better than about 82% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 82 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. Park Lincoln By Reside's 33.1 kBtu/ft² across 149,351 sq ft works out to about 4.9 billion Btu (1,449 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 86.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,303,576 kWh of electricity, 4,985 therms of natural gas and 4,690 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires Park Lincoln By Reside to report its energy use?
