How does M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002) compare with other K-12 school buildings in New York City?

The latest disclosures cover 2,301 K-12 school buildings in New York City, out of 48,310 buildings citywide. M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002)'s ENERGY STAR score of 64 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 42% of them and lower than 57%. Its site EUI of 70.7 kBtu/ft² is about 15% above the average of 61.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 5.0 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 85,280 sq ft, it is about 16% below the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1966, 13 years later than the group's average year built (1954). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 6,548 K-12 school buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 52.7 kBtu/ft².

How has M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002)'s energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002), covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 60 in 2022 to 64 in 2024 (+4 points). Site EUI moved from 79.2 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 70.7 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 11% decrease. Reported emissions went from 414 tCO₂e to 423 tCO₂e over the same span (up 2%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 64 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 64 means the building performs better than about 64% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 64 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 11 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. M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002)'s 70.7 kBtu/ft² across 85,280 sq ft works out to about 6 billion Btu (1,767 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 108.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 484,771 kWh of electricity and 43,776 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires M036 (OECID: 0100054; BBL: 1018500002) to report its energy use?
