What does an ENERGY STAR score of 44 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 44 means the building performs better than about 44% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 44 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 31 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In New York City, 43% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
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. 606 West 116th's 75.8 kBtu/ft² across 73,800 sq ft works out to about 5.6 billion Btu (1,639 MWh-equivalent) in 2024.

The disclosure also reports 177,114 kWh of electricity, 49,921 therms of natural gas and 2,415 thousand gallons of water for the year.
