How does Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001) 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. Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001)'s ENERGY STAR score of 52 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 28% of them and lower than 71%. Its site EUI of 70.6 kBtu/ft² is about 15% above 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 5.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 19% above the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 100,925 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1961, 8 years later 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 Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001)'s energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001), covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 19 in 2022 to 52 in 2024 (+33 points). Site EUI moved from 109.9 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 70.6 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 36% decrease. Reported emissions went from 782 tCO₂e to 575 tCO₂e over the same span (down 26%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 52 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 52 means the building performs better than about 52% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 52 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 23 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. Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001)'s 70.6 kBtu/ft² across 100,925 sq ft works out to about 7.1 billion Btu (2,088 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 94.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 372,960 kWh of electricity, 2,638 therms of natural gas and 1,029 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires Q183 (OECID: 0401378; BBL: 4161120001) to report its energy use?
