What does a site EUI of 104.0 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. Cummins Sales and Service's 104.0 kBtu/ft² across 41,303 sq ft works out to about 4.3 billion Btu (1,259 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 176.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 468,820 kWh of electricity and 26,938 therms of natural gas for the year.
