How does 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST compare with other refrigerated warehouse buildings in Los Angeles?

The latest disclosures cover 33 refrigerated warehouse buildings in Los Angeles, out of 11,498 buildings citywide. 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST's ENERGY STAR score of 79 compares with an average of 42 across the 28 that report a score; it scores higher than 79% of them and lower than 18%. Its site EUI of 19.6 kBtu/ft² is about 81% below the average of 100.7 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.

At 83,900 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 88,638 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1908, 58 years earlier than the group's average year built (1966). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 472 refrigerated warehouse buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 52 and a site EUI of 76.3 kBtu/ft².

How has 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 9 Los Angeles disclosures for 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST, covering report years 2017–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 12 in 2017 to 79 in 2025 (+67 points).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 79 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 79 means the building performs better than about 79% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 79 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. 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST's 19.6 kBtu/ft² across 83,900 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (482 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 54.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 69 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires 1567 INDUSTRIAL ST to report its energy use?

1567 INDUSTRIAL ST 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:490150835646:2025). 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.
