What does a site EUI of 78.1 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. Fordham Lincoln Center Campus's 78.1 kBtu/ft² across 1,224,124 sq ft works out to about 95.6 billion Btu (28,019 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 164.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 16,240,334 kWh of electricity, 168,973 therms of natural gas and 22,328 thousand gallons of water for the year.
