What does a site EUI of 86.6 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. 739 East New York Avenue's 86.6 kBtu/ft² across 33,600 sq ft works out to about 2.9 billion Btu (853 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 180.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 506,115 kWh of electricity, 11,838 therms of natural gas and 1,151 thousand gallons of water for the year.
