How has 214 E 8TH ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 8 Los Angeles disclosures for 214 E 8TH ST, covering report years 2018–2025. Site EUI moved from 14.7 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 6.2 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 58% decrease. Reported emissions went from 42 tCO₂e to 15 tCO₂e over the same span (down 64%).
What does a site EUI of 6.2 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. 214 E 8TH ST's 6.2 kBtu/ft² across 43,136 sq ft works out to about 0.3 billion Btu (78 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 17.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 207 thousand gallons of water for the year.
