How has Ace Dropcloth's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for Ace Dropcloth, covering report years 2022–2024. Site EUI moved from 31.9 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 30.1 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 6% decrease. Reported emissions went from 67 tCO₂e to 72 tCO₂e over the same span (up 7%).
What does a site EUI of 30.1 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. Ace Dropcloth's 30.1 kBtu/ft² across 34,464 sq ft works out to about 1 billion Btu (304 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 45.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 78,324 kWh of electricity, 7,705 therms of natural gas and 183 thousand gallons of water for the year.
