What does a site EUI of 48.1 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. Bethesda Complexc's 48.1 kBtu/ft² across 93,042 sq ft works out to about 4.5 billion Btu (1,312 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 95.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 700,765 kWh of electricity and 20,887 therms of natural gas for the year.
