What does a site EUI of 29.9 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. Industry City's 29.9 kBtu/ft² across 3,405,636 sq ft works out to about 101.8 billion Btu (29,843 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 50.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 10,592,741 kWh of electricity and 645,075 therms of natural gas for the year.
