What does an ENERGY STAR score of 83 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 83 means the building performs better than about 83% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 83 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 Denver, 54% 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. Regatta Sloan'S Lake - Co (Xl04)'s 72.7 kBtu/ft² across 275,643 sq ft works out to about 20 billion Btu (5,873 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 2,567,840 kWh of electricity and 112,836 therms of natural gas for the year.
