Its site EUI of 36.0 kBtu/ft² is about 44% below the average of 64.5 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about half of the group average of 5.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 25,500 sq ft, it is about 88% below the average floor area of 205,440 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2008, 68 years later than the group's average year built (1940).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 76 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 76 means the building performs better than about 76% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 76 falls in band B — above median (70–84). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. 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. 266 47 STREET's 36.0 kBtu/ft² across 25,500 sq ft works out to about 0.9 billion Btu (269 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 87.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 210,884 kWh of electricity and 840 thousand gallons of water for the year.
