How has 1012 W 36TH ST's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 8 Los Angeles disclosures for 1012 W 36TH ST, covering report years 2018–2025. Site EUI moved from 176.3 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 398.3 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 126% increase. Reported emissions went from 2,166 tCO₂e to 4,322 tCO₂e over the same span (up 99%).

What does a site EUI of 398.3 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 W 36TH ST's 398.3 kBtu/ft² across 199,791 sq ft works out to about 79.6 billion Btu (23,322 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 630.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 5,084 thousand gallons of water for the year.
