Its site EUI of 59.2 kBtu/ft² is about 37% below the average of 94.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 4.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 44% below the group average of 7.8 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 200,000 sq ft, it is about 46% above the average floor area of 137,256 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1911, 64 years earlier than the group's average year built (1975). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,812 hotel buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 77.8 kBtu/ft².

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 52 mean?

ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 52 means the building performs better than about 52% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 52 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 23 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In New York City, 43% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.

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. 201 PARK AVENUE SOUTH's 59.2 kBtu/ft² across 200,000 sq ft works out to about 11.8 billion Btu (3,470 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 133.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 2,377,766 kWh of electricity and 7,876 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires 201 PARK AVENUE SOUTH to report its energy use?
