How does 10300 AVIATION BLVD compare with other non-refrigerated warehouse buildings in Los Angeles?

The latest disclosures cover 392 non-refrigerated warehouse buildings in Los Angeles, out of 11,498 buildings citywide. 10300 AVIATION BLVD's ENERGY STAR score of 83 compares with an average of 68 across the 352 that report a score; it scores higher than 62% of them and lower than 36%. Its site EUI of 5.9 kBtu/ft² is about 70% below the average of 19.5 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.

At 21,140 sq ft, it is about 63% below the average floor area of 57,664 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1961, 11 years earlier than the group's average year built (1972). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,723 non-refrigerated warehouse buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 66 and a site EUI of 26.0 kBtu/ft².

How has 10300 AVIATION BLVD's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 9 Los Angeles disclosures for 10300 AVIATION BLVD, covering report years 2017–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 11 in 2018 to 83 in 2025 (+72 points); its best year on file was 2023, at 96. Site EUI moved from 19.7 kBtu/ft² (2017) to 5.9 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 70% decrease. Reported emissions went from 43 tCO₂e to 7 tCO₂e over the same span (down 83%).

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 Los Angeles, 63% 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. 10300 AVIATION BLVD's 5.9 kBtu/ft² across 21,140 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (37 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 16.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 104 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires 10300 AVIATION BLVD to report its energy use?

10300 AVIATION BLVD reports under LA Municipal Code Div. 97, §91.9701 (EBEWE), the legal basis of Los Angeles's Existing Buildings Energy & Water Efficiency (EBEWE) program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2025 disclosure (source record la:447039801570:2025). EBEWE requires annual benchmarking plus audits/retro-commissioning every five years for privately owned buildings of 20,000 sq ft or more; non-compliance carries a $202 fee (LAMC §91.9712) plus possible late fees.
