How has 636 LUCAS AVE's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 9 Los Angeles disclosures for 636 LUCAS AVE, covering report years 2017–2025. Site EUI moved from 2.3 kBtu/ft² (2017) to 1.9 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 17% decrease. Reported emissions went from 13 tCO₂e to 9 tCO₂e over the same span (down 28%).
What does a site EUI of 1.9 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. 636 LUCAS AVE's 1.9 kBtu/ft² across 85,278 sq ft works out to about 0.2 billion Btu (47 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 5.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 41 thousand gallons of water for the year.
