BuildingCensus holds 2 Los Angeles disclosures for 8720 BEVERLY BLVD, covering report years 2016–2017. Site EUI moved from 303.0 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 315.4 kBtu/ft² (2017), an 4% increase. Reported emissions went from 4,786 tCO₂e to 4,571 tCO₂e over the same span (down 4%).
What does a site EUI of 315.4 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. 8720 BEVERLY BLVD's 315.4 kBtu/ft² across 215,598 sq ft works out to about 68 billion Btu (19,929 MWh-equivalent) in 2017. Its source EUI of 740.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 49,238 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 8720 BEVERLY BLVD to report its energy use?
8720 BEVERLY BLVD 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.
