DOE_6733_K306's ENERGY STAR score of 70 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 51% of them and lower than 48%. Its site EUI of 65.1 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 61.3 kBtu/ft². Its emissions intensity of 4.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 112,800 sq ft, it is about 11% above the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1965, 12 years later 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.
How has DOE_6733_K306's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for DOE_6733_K306, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 88 in 2022 to 70 in 2024 (-18 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 88. Site EUI moved from 42.9 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 65.1 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 52% increase. Reported emissions went from 315 tCO₂e to 493 tCO₂e over the same span (up 57%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 70 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 70 means the building performs better than about 70% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 70 falls in band B — above median (70–84). It sits 5 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. DOE_6733_K306's 65.1 kBtu/ft² across 112,800 sq ft works out to about 7.3 billion Btu (2,152 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 94.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 486,924 kWh of electricity and 56,853 therms of natural gas for the year.
