Its site EUI of 41.9 kBtu/ft² is about 44% below the average of 74.9 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 3.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 35% below the group average of 5.2 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 86,184 sq ft, it is about 15% below the average floor area of 100,951 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2022, 70 years later than the group's average year built (1952).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 90 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 90 means the building performs better than about 90% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 90 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). 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. 30 Kent Street's 41.9 kBtu/ft² across 86,184 sq ft works out to about 3.6 billion Btu (1,058 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 82.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 555,638 kWh of electricity and 17,112 therms of natural gas for the year.
