What does a site EUI of 53.3 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. 2500 W 4TH ST's 53.3 kBtu/ft² across 37,570 sq ft works out to about 2 billion Btu (587 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 92.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 3,817 thousand gallons of water for the year.
