What does a site EUI of 34.7 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. Life Storage - 7201's 34.7 kBtu/ft² across 45,435 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (462 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 57.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 156,859 kWh of electricity and 13 thousand gallons of water for the year.
