How does MMS #1988 compare with other self-storage facility buildings in New York City?
The latest disclosures cover 481 self-storage facility buildings in New York City, out of 48,310 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 8.0 kBtu/ft² is about 62% below the average of 21.2 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about half of the group average of 1.7 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 52,497 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 98,872 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1923, 60 years earlier than the group's average year built (1983). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,050 self-storage facility buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 75 and a site EUI of 9.4 kBtu/ft².
What does a site EUI of 8.0 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. MMS #1988's 8.0 kBtu/ft² across 52,497 sq ft works out to about 0.4 billion Btu (123 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 20.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 101,314 kWh of electricity, 758 therms of natural gas and 173 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires MMS #1988 to report its energy use?
