How has John Lo Schiavo Center's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 14 San Francisco disclosures for John Lo Schiavo Center, covering report years 2012–2025. Site EUI moved from 45.1 kBtu/ft² (2018) to 47.1 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 4% increase. Reported emissions went from 206 tCO₂e to 174 tCO₂e over the same span (down 15%).
What does a site EUI of 47.1 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. John Lo Schiavo Center's 47.1 kBtu/ft² across 64,844 sq ft works out to about 3.1 billion Btu (895 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 131.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 894,670 kWh of electricity for the year.
