At 167,778 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 165,572 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1994, 28 years later than the group's average year built (1967).
How has 38 BRYANT ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 8 San Francisco disclosures for 38 BRYANT ST, covering report years 2018–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score was 100 in both 2022 and 2025. Site EUI moved from 19.3 kBtu/ft² (2020) to 17.0 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 12% decrease. Reported emissions went from 144 tCO₂e to 124 tCO₂e over the same span (down 14%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 100 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: 100 is the top of the scale. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 100 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. 38 BRYANT ST's 17.0 kBtu/ft² across 167,778 sq ft works out to about 2.9 billion Btu (836 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 29.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 250,179 kWh of electricity and 14,157 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 38 BRYANT ST to report its energy use?
38 BRYANT 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:3768/021:2025).
