How does Bosworth Building compare with other K-12 school buildings in New York City?
The latest disclosures cover 2,301 K-12 school buildings in New York City, out of 48,310 buildings citywide. Bosworth Building's ENERGY STAR score of 73 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 54% of them and lower than 44%. Its site EUI of 48.8 kBtu/ft² is about 20% below the average of 61.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 3.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 31% below the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 116,863 sq ft, it is about 15% above the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1906, 47 years earlier than the group's average year built (1954). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 6,548 K-12 school buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 52.7 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 73 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 73 means the building performs better than about 73% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 73 falls in band B — above median (70–84). It sits 2 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. Bosworth Building's 48.8 kBtu/ft² across 116,863 sq ft works out to about 5.7 billion Btu (1,671 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 90.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 774,204 kWh of electricity and 811 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires Bosworth Building to report its energy use?
Bosworth Building reports under Local Law 84 (LL84), the legal basis of New York City's Energy and Water Data Disclosure program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2022 disclosure (source record nyc:2660703:2022). Under Local Law 97, buildings over 25,000 sq ft face carbon caps with fines of $268 per metric ton of CO₂e over the limit, phasing in from 2024.
