How has 678 MISSION ST's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 15 San Francisco disclosures for 678 MISSION ST, covering report years 2011–2025. Site EUI moved from 27.0 kBtu/ft² (2013) to 7.6 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 72% decrease. Reported emissions went from 32 tCO₂e to 7 tCO₂e over the same span (down 78%).
What does a site EUI of 7.6 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. 678 MISSION ST's 7.6 kBtu/ft² across 16,310 sq ft works out to about 0.1 billion Btu (36 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 18.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 28,176 kWh of electricity and 279 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 678 MISSION ST to report its energy use?
678 MISSION 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:3707/021:2025).
