What does a site EUI of 192.9 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. 800 S HOPE ST's 192.9 kBtu/ft² across 254,304 sq ft works out to about 49.1 billion Btu (14,377 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 540.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 6,120 thousand gallons of water for the year.
