What does a site EUI of 16.1 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. 399 Sands Street's 16.1 kBtu/ft² across 263,754 sq ft works out to about 4.2 billion Btu (1,245 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 16.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 42,531 therms of natural gas for the year.
