What does an ENERGY STAR score of 63 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 63 means the building performs better than about 63% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 63 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 12 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. K263 (OECID: 0300267; BBL: 3035420001)'s 73.6 kBtu/ft² across 157,200 sq ft works out to about 11.6 billion Btu (3,391 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 104.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 783,449 kWh of electricity, 1,414 therms of natural gas and 0 thousand gallons of water for the year.
