What does a site EUI of 44.5 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. 124 West 16th Street's 44.5 kBtu/ft² across 47,140 sq ft works out to about 2.1 billion Btu (615 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 99.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 405,754 kWh of electricity and 6,772 therms of natural gas for the year.
