How does DOE_6571_K117 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. DOE_6571_K117's ENERGY STAR score of 85 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 75% of them and lower than 23%. Its site EUI of 54.4 kBtu/ft² is about 11% 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 4.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 176,400 sq ft, it is about 74% above the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. Its 1955 construction date is close to 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.

How has DOE_6571_K117's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for DOE_6571_K117, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 78 in 2022 to 85 in 2024 (+7 points). Site EUI moved from 68.3 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 54.4 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 20% decrease. Reported emissions went from 906 tCO₂e to 780 tCO₂e over the same span (down 14%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 85 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 85 means the building performs better than about 85% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 85 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. 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. DOE_6571_K117's 54.4 kBtu/ft² across 176,400 sq ft works out to about 9.6 billion Btu (2,812 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 73.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 522,710 kWh of electricity and 2,827 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires DOE_6571_K117 to report its energy use?
