What does a site EUI of 2.3 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. 4820 FOUNTAIN AVE's 2.3 kBtu/ft² across 122,011 sq ft works out to about 0.3 billion Btu (82 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 6.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 228 thousand gallons of water for the year.
