How does 3731 WILSHIRE BLVD compare with other office buildings in Los Angeles?

The latest disclosures cover 676 office buildings in Los Angeles, out of 11,498 buildings citywide. 3731 WILSHIRE BLVD's ENERGY STAR score of 85 compares with an average of 77 across the 591 that report a score; it scores higher than 50% of them and lower than 48%. Its site EUI of 53.1 kBtu/ft² is about 20% above the average of 44.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.

At 184,381 sq ft, it is about 25% above the average floor area of 147,328 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1971, 4 years earlier than the group's average year built (1975). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 85 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 85 means the building performs better than about 85% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 85 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. 3731 WILSHIRE BLVD's 53.1 kBtu/ft² across 184,381 sq ft works out to about 9.8 billion Btu (2,869 MWh-equivalent) in 2016. Its source EUI of 166.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 3,793 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires 3731 WILSHIRE BLVD to report its energy use?

3731 WILSHIRE BLVD 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.
