How does DOE_7888_X973 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_7888_X973's ENERGY STAR score of 24 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 11% of them and lower than 89%. Its site EUI of 68.6 kBtu/ft² is about 12% above the average of 61.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 5.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 21% above the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 70,230 sq ft, it is about 31% below the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1970, 17 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.
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 24 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 24 means the building performs better than about 24% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 24 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 51 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_7888_X973's 68.6 kBtu/ft² across 70,230 sq ft works out to about 4.8 billion Btu (1,412 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 189.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,385,120 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires DOE_7888_X973 to report its energy use?
DOE_7888_X973 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.
