What does a site EUI of 81.5 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. Lunt-Fontanne Theatre's 81.5 kBtu/ft² across 34,000 sq ft works out to about 2.8 billion Btu (812 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 191.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 584,889 kWh of electricity and 1,088 thousand gallons of water for the year.
