What does a site EUI of 33.1 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. 20051 S VERMONT AVE's 33.1 kBtu/ft² across 118,118 sq ft works out to about 3.9 billion Btu (1,146 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 92.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 676 thousand gallons of water for the year.
