The latest disclosures cover 2,301 K-12 school buildings in New York City, out of 48,310 buildings citywide. M133 (OECID: 0100120; BBL: 1017550001)'s ENERGY STAR score of 22 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 10% of them and lower than 90%. Its site EUI of 118.8 kBtu/ft² is about twice 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 9.5 kgCO₂e/ft² is about twice the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 81,680 sq ft, it is about 19% below the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1949, 4 years earlier 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 M133 (OECID: 0100120; BBL: 1017550001)'s energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for M133 (OECID: 0100120; BBL: 1017550001), covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 7 in 2022 to 22 in 2024 (+15 points). Site EUI moved from 173.8 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 118.8 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 32% decrease. Reported emissions went from 1,077 tCO₂e to 773 tCO₂e over the same span (down 28%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 22 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 22 means the building performs better than about 22% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 22 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 53 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. M133 (OECID: 0100120; BBL: 1017550001)'s 118.8 kBtu/ft² across 81,680 sq ft works out to about 9.7 billion Btu (2,844 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 153.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 442,737 kWh of electricity and 4,094 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires M133 (OECID: 0100120; BBL: 1017550001) to report its energy use?
