Its ENERGY STAR score went from 37 in 2022 to 35 in 2024 (-2 points); its best year on file was 2023, at 39. Site EUI moved from 79.8 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 78.9 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 1% decrease. Reported emissions went from 177 tCO₂e to 197 tCO₂e over the same span (up 11%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 35 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 35 means the building performs better than about 35% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 35 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 40 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. Yeshiva School's 78.9 kBtu/ft² across 35,900 sq ft works out to about 2.8 billion Btu (830 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 119.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 220,936 kWh of electricity, 20,773 therms of natural gas and 1,027 thousand gallons of water for the year.
