What does a site EUI of 38.1 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. 170 Van Brunt Street's 38.1 kBtu/ft² across 39,740 sq ft works out to about 1.5 billion Btu (444 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 64.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 164,083 kWh of electricity for the year.
