How has 649 S BOYLE AVE's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 9 Los Angeles disclosures for 649 S BOYLE AVE, covering report years 2017–2025. Site EUI moved from 2.7 kBtu/ft² (2017) to 1.7 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 37% decrease. Reported emissions went from 14 tCO₂e to 7 tCO₂e over the same span (down 52%).
What does a site EUI of 1.7 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. 649 S BOYLE AVE's 1.7 kBtu/ft² across 72,243 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (36 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 1.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 72 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 649 S BOYLE AVE to report its energy use?
649 S BOYLE AVE 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.
