How has 1012 SANTEE ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 8 Los Angeles disclosures for 1012 SANTEE ST, covering report years 2018–2025. Site EUI moved from 16.5 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 19.5 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 18% increase. Reported emissions went from 26 tCO₂e to 29 tCO₂e over the same span (up 12%).
What does a site EUI of 19.5 kBtu/ft² mean?
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. 1012 SANTEE ST's 19.5 kBtu/ft² across 26,400 sq ft works out to about 0.5 billion Btu (151 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 54.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 46 thousand gallons of water for the year.
