Its ENERGY STAR score went from 90 in 2016 to 81 in 2022 (-9 points); its best year on file was 2019, at 93. Site EUI moved from 66.5 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 85.4 kBtu/ft² (2022), an 28% increase. Reported emissions went from 321 tCO₂e to 282 tCO₂e over the same span (down 12%).
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. Reside on Roscoe's 85.4 kBtu/ft² across 47,240 sq ft works out to about 4 billion Btu (1,182 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 121.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 252,929 kWh of electricity and 31,707 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Reside on Roscoe to report its energy use?
