What does a site EUI of 57.3 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. Fire Station #02's 57.3 kBtu/ft² across 33,665 sq ft works out to about 1.9 billion Btu (565 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 107.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 264,989 kWh of electricity and 10,232 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Fire Station #02 to report its energy use?
