How does New Palace Painters compare with other retail store buildings in New York City?

The latest disclosures cover 525 retail store buildings in New York City, out of 48,310 buildings citywide. New Palace Painters's ENERGY STAR score of 80 compares with an average of 62 across the 270 that report a score; it scores higher than 59% of them and lower than 40%. Its site EUI of 37.8 kBtu/ft² is about half of the average of 75.0 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.4 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 63% below the group average of 6.5 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 41,644 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 81,524 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1931, 31 years earlier than the group's average year built (1963). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,025 retail store buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 57.7 kBtu/ft².

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 80 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 80 means the building performs better than about 80% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 80 falls in band B — above median (70–84). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. 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. New Palace Painters's 37.8 kBtu/ft² across 41,644 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (461 MWh-equivalent) in 2022. Its source EUI of 63.4 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 165,193 kWh of electricity for the year.

Which law requires New Palace Painters to report its energy use?
