Its site EUI of 50.8 kBtu/ft² is about 41% above the average of 36.0 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 2.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 39% above the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 105,494 sq ft, it is about 36% below the average floor area of 165,572 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1975, 9 years later than the group's average year built (1967).

How has 1300 BUSH ST's energy performance changed over time?

Its ENERGY STAR score went from 84 in 2018 to 99 in 2025 (+15 points); its best year on file was 2024, at 99. Site EUI moved from 61.9 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 50.8 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 18% decrease. Reported emissions went from 265 tCO₂e to 203 tCO₂e over the same span (down 23%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 99 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 99 means the building performs better than about 99% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 99 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 Francisco, 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. 1300 BUSH ST's 50.8 kBtu/ft² across 105,494 sq ft works out to about 5.4 billion Btu (1,571 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 84.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 382,346 kWh of electricity and 24,132 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires 1300 BUSH ST to report its energy use?

1300 BUSH ST reports under SF Environment Code Chapter 20, the legal basis of San Francisco's Existing Buildings Energy Performance Ordinance, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2025 disclosure (source record sf:0668/002:2025). San Francisco's ordinance requires annual benchmarking for commercial buildings over 10,000 sq ft, with administrative penalties for buildings that fail to report.
