What does a site EUI of 9.4 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. 5621 W IMPERIAL HWY's 9.4 kBtu/ft² across 117,854 sq ft works out to about 1.1 billion Btu (325 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 26.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 133 thousand gallons of water for the year.
