How has WCMC - FEIL (RR) Building's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 New York City disclosures for WCMC - FEIL (RR) Building, covering report years 2022–2024. Site EUI moved from 303.3 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 300.5 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 1% decrease. Reported emissions went from 1,381 tCO₂e to 1,685 tCO₂e over the same span (up 22%).
What does a site EUI of 300.5 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. WCMC - FEIL (RR) Building's 300.5 kBtu/ft² across 68,635 sq ft works out to about 20.6 billion Btu (6,045 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 557.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 2,785,333 kWh of electricity, 110,840 therms of natural gas and 3,402 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires WCMC - FEIL (RR) Building to report its energy use?
