How has 909 E COLON ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Los Angeles disclosures for 909 E COLON ST, covering report years 2016–2025. Site EUI moved from 57.2 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 6.3 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 89% decrease. Reported emissions went from 1,110 tCO₂e to 80 tCO₂e over the same span (down 93%).
What does a site EUI of 6.3 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. 909 E COLON ST's 6.3 kBtu/ft² across 223,865 sq ft works out to about 1.4 billion Btu (413 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 17.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 126 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires 909 E COLON ST to report its energy use?
909 E COLON ST 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. The record shown here is the report-year 2025 disclosure (source record la:484889746995:2025).
