How does 401 ALABAMA ST compare with other mixed residential buildings in San Francisco?
The latest disclosures cover 610 mixed residential buildings in San Francisco, out of 2,509 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 33.9 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 36.0 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 98,411 sq ft, it is about 41% below the average floor area of 165,572 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1925, 41 years earlier than the group's average year built (1967).
How has 401 ALABAMA ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 8 San Francisco disclosures for 401 ALABAMA ST, covering report years 2018–2025. Site EUI moved from 45.6 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 33.9 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 26% decrease. Reported emissions went from 255 tCO₂e to 180 tCO₂e over the same span (down 29%).
What does a site EUI of 33.9 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. 401 ALABAMA ST's 33.9 kBtu/ft² across 98,411 sq ft works out to about 3.3 billion Btu (978 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 48.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 203,796 kWh of electricity and 26,424 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 401 ALABAMA ST to report its energy use?
401 ALABAMA 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:3969/001:2025).
