How does Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008) 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. Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008)'s ENERGY STAR score of 93 compares with an average of 64 across the 2,052 that report a score; it scores higher than 88% of them and lower than 11%. Its site EUI of 27.8 kBtu/ft² is about half of 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 3.0 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 38% below the group average of 4.8 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 37,400 sq ft, it is about 63% below the average floor area of 101,338 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2006, 53 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 Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008)'s energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 2 New York City disclosures for Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008), covering report years 2022–2023. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 95 in 2022 to 93 in 2023 (-2 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 95. Site EUI moved from 27.5 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 27.8 kBtu/ft² (2023), an 1% increase. Reported emissions went from 87 tCO₂e to 113 tCO₂e over the same span (up 30%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 93 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 93 means the building performs better than about 93% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 93 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). 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. Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008)'s 27.8 kBtu/ft² across 37,400 sq ft works out to about 1 billion Btu (305 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 78.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 305,157 kWh of electricity and 1,139 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires Q739 (OECID: 0401684; BBL: 4005420008) to report its energy use?
