Its ENERGY STAR score went from 90 in 2018 to 94 in 2023 (+4 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 96. Site EUI moved from 56.6 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 48.7 kBtu/ft² (2023), a 14% decrease. Reported emissions went from 612 tCO₂e to 461 tCO₂e over the same span (down 25%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 94 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 94 means the building performs better than about 94% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 94 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). 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. The Broadmoor Apartments's 48.7 kBtu/ft² across 130,365 sq ft works out to about 6.3 billion Btu (1,861 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 70.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 418,167 kWh of electricity and 49,283 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires The Broadmoor Apartments to report its energy use?
