How has 12636 BEATRICE ST's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 5 Los Angeles disclosures for 12636 BEATRICE ST, covering report years 2018–2022. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 92 in 2019 to 87 in 2022 (-5 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 93. Site EUI moved from 24.8 kBtu/ft² (2019) to 35.6 kBtu/ft² (2022), an 44% increase.

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 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. 12636 BEATRICE ST's 35.6 kBtu/ft² across 40,000 sq ft works out to about 1.4 billion Btu (417 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 81.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 90 thousand gallons of water for the year.
