How does HTL 587 compare with other commercial buildings in San Francisco?

The latest disclosures cover 1,683 commercial buildings in San Francisco, out of 2,509 buildings citywide. HTL 587's ENERGY STAR score of 91 compares with an average of 78 across the 790 that report a score; it scores higher than 63% of them and lower than 35%. Its site EUI of 51.9 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 49.2 kBtu/ft². Its emissions intensity of 2.8 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 2.7 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 35,000 sq ft, it is about 67% below the average floor area of 107,408 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1925, 16 years earlier than the group's average year built (1941). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 2,307 commercial buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 76 and a site EUI of 51.3 kBtu/ft².

How has HTL 587's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 14 San Francisco disclosures for HTL 587, covering report years 2012–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 54 in 2017 to 91 in 2025 (+37 points); its best year on file was 2024, at 96. Site EUI moved from 88.7 kBtu/ft² (2017) to 51.9 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 41% decrease. Reported emissions went from 170 tCO₂e to 98 tCO₂e over the same span (down 42%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 91 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 91 means the building performs better than about 91% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 91 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. HTL 587's 51.9 kBtu/ft² across 35,000 sq ft works out to about 1.8 billion Btu (532 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 74.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 115,178 kWh of electricity and 14,239 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires HTL 587 to report its energy use?

HTL 587 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:0336/014A: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.
