How has M873 (OECID: 0101369; BBL: 1008240015)'s energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 2 New York City disclosures for M873 (OECID: 0101369; BBL: 1008240015), covering report years 2022–2023. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 67 in 2022 to 64 in 2023 (-3 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 67. Site EUI moved from 41.5 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 40.6 kBtu/ft² (2023), a 2% decrease. Reported emissions went from 223 tCO₂e to 280 tCO₂e over the same span (up 26%).

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. M873 (OECID: 0101369; BBL: 1008240015)'s 40.6 kBtu/ft² across 63,600 sq ft works out to about 2.6 billion Btu (757 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 113.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 752,835 kWh of electricity, 111 therms of natural gas and 2,529 thousand gallons of water for the year.
