What does a site EUI of 31.5 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. 47-50 30th Street's 31.5 kBtu/ft² across 52,500 sq ft works out to about 1.7 billion Btu (485 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 78.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 398,342 kWh of electricity and 2,945 therms of natural gas for the year.
