The latest disclosures cover 356 office buildings in San Diego, out of 2,567 buildings citywide. 0344 Juvenile Probation Center's ENERGY STAR score of 94 compares with an average of 75 across the 259 that report a score; it scores higher than 80% of them and lower than 17%. Its site EUI of 35.9 kBtu/ft² is about 34% below the average of 54.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 66,070 sq ft, it is about half of the average floor area of 130,949 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2001, 10 years later than the group's average year built (1991). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 94 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 94 means the building performs better than about 94% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 94 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 San Diego, 73% 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. 0344 Juvenile Probation Center's 35.9 kBtu/ft² across 66,070 sq ft works out to about 2.4 billion Btu (695 MWh-equivalent) in 2022.
Which law requires 0344 Juvenile Probation Center to report its energy use?
0344 Juvenile Probation Center reports under the Building Energy Benchmarking Ordinance (SDMC Ch. 14 Art. 12), the legal basis of San Diego's Building Energy Benchmarking program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2022 disclosure (source record san_diego:102401:2022).
