Its site EUI of 27.6 kBtu/ft² is about 21% below the average of 34.9 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.5 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 19% below the group average of 1.9 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 160,936 sq ft, it is about 16% below the average floor area of 191,699 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2017, 31 years later than the group's average year built (1986). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 238 multifamily buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 86 and a site EUI of 34.8 kBtu/ft².

How has 360 BERRY ST's energy performance changed over time?

Its ENERGY STAR score went from 96 in 2018 to 98 in 2025 (+2 points); its best year on file was 2024, at 99. Site EUI moved from 29.2 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 27.6 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 5% decrease. Reported emissions went from 238 tCO₂e to 204 tCO₂e over the same span (down 14%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 98 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 98 means the building performs better than about 98% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 98 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. 360 BERRY ST's 27.6 kBtu/ft² across 160,936 sq ft works out to about 4.4 billion Btu (1,302 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 55.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 602,509 kWh of electricity and 16,362 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires 360 BERRY ST to report its energy use?

360 BERRY 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:8704/004:2025). San Francisco's ordinance requires annual benchmarking for commercial buildings over 10,000 sq ft, with administrative penalties for buildings that fail to report.
