How does Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014) 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. Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014)'s ENERGY STAR score of 28 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 13% of them and lower than 87%. Its site EUI of 58.0 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 61.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 4.9 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 165,393 sq ft, it is about 63% above the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1923, 30 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 Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014)'s energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014), covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 13 in 2022 to 28 in 2024 (+15 points). Site EUI moved from 80.3 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 58.0 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 28% decrease. Reported emissions went from 877 tCO₂e to 806 tCO₂e over the same span (down 8%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 28 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 28 means the building performs better than about 28% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 28 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 47 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. Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014)'s 58.0 kBtu/ft² across 165,393 sq ft works out to about 9.6 billion Btu (2,811 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 111.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,403,511 kWh of electricity and 47,989 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Q070 (OECID: 0400062; BBL: 4006960014) to report its energy use?
