How has 9420 DE SOTO AVE's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 10 Los Angeles disclosures for 9420 DE SOTO AVE, covering report years 2016–2025. Site EUI moved from 3.1 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 2.7 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 13% decrease. Reported emissions went from 32 tCO₂e to 18 tCO₂e over the same span (down 44%).
What does a site EUI of 2.7 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. 9420 DE SOTO AVE's 2.7 kBtu/ft² across 118,368 sq ft works out to about 0.3 billion Btu (94 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 7.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 81 thousand gallons of water for the year.
