What does a site EUI of 34.0 kBtu/ft² mean?

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. 388 Market Street's 34.0 kBtu/ft² across 479,813 sq ft works out to about 16.3 billion Btu (4,781 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 60.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,819,629 kWh of electricity and 85,836 therms of natural gas for the year.
