How has 1800 PACIFIC AVE's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 8 San Francisco disclosures for 1800 PACIFIC AVE, covering report years 2018–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 98 in 2018 to 92 in 2025 (-6 points); its best year on file was 2023, at 100. Site EUI moved from 15.8 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 19.8 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 25% increase. Reported emissions went from 89 tCO₂e to 90 tCO₂e over the same span (up 2%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 92 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 92 means the building performs better than about 92% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 92 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. 1800 PACIFIC AVE's 19.8 kBtu/ft² across 79,820 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (463 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 55.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 463,385 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires 1800 PACIFIC AVE to report its energy use?
1800 PACIFIC AVE 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:0576/026:2025).
