What does a site EUI of 102.7 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. 420-422 Central Avenue's 102.7 kBtu/ft² across 10,800 sq ft works out to about 1.1 billion Btu (325 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 159.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 93,718 kWh of electricity and 7,898 therms of natural gas for the year.
