How does DOE_7326_Q232 TCU 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_7326_Q232 TCU's ENERGY STAR score of 89 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 82% of them and lower than 17%. Its site EUI of 35.7 kBtu/ft² is about 42% 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 3.2 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 33% below the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 102,405 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1962, 9 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_7326_Q232 TCU's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for DOE_7326_Q232 TCU, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 67 in 2022 to 89 in 2024 (+22 points). Site EUI moved from 57.8 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 35.7 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 38% decrease. Reported emissions went from 459 tCO₂e to 329 tCO₂e over the same span (down 28%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 89 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 89 means the building performs better than about 89% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 89 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_7326_Q232 TCU's 35.7 kBtu/ft² across 102,405 sq ft works out to about 3.7 billion Btu (1,071 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 62.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 440,301 kWh of electricity and 1,844 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires DOE_7326_Q232 TCU to report its energy use?
