How does Sandoval Campus Bldg #5 compare with other K-12 school buildings in Denver?
The latest disclosures cover 192 K-12 school buildings in Denver, out of 3,287 buildings citywide. Sandoval Campus Bldg #5's ENERGY STAR score of 87 compares with an average of 58 across the 189 that report a score; it scores higher than 87% of them and lower than 12%. Its site EUI of 52.2 kBtu/ft² is about 17% below the average of 62.9 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 98,086 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 92,016 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2020, 54 years later than the group's average year built (1966). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 6,548 K-12 school buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 52.7 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 87 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 87 means the building performs better than about 87% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 87 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 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. Sandoval Campus Bldg #5's 52.2 kBtu/ft² across 98,086 sq ft works out to about 5.1 billion Btu (1,501 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 194,201 kWh of electricity and 34,357 therms of natural gas for the year.
