What does a site EUI of 1.8 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. 42-24 Orchard Street's 1.8 kBtu/ft² across 210,558 sq ft works out to about 0.4 billion Btu (111 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 2.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 5,397 kWh of electricity for the year.
