What does a site EUI of 90.7 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. 315 Bowery's 90.7 kBtu/ft² across 32,358 sq ft works out to about 2.9 billion Btu (860 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 180.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 464,271 kWh of electricity and 13,510 therms of natural gas for the year.
