The latest disclosures cover 1,683 commercial buildings in San Francisco, out of 2,509 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 23.5 kBtu/ft² is about half of the average of 49.2 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.3 kgCO₂e/ft² is about half of the group average of 2.7 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 252,836 sq ft, it is about 135% above the average floor area of 107,408 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1981, 40 years later 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 Pacific Place II's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 14 San Francisco disclosures for Pacific Place II, covering report years 2012–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 98 in 2016 to 91 in 2024 (-7 points); its best year on file was 2016, at 98. Site EUI moved from 41.0 kBtu/ft² (2016) to 23.5 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 43% decrease. Reported emissions went from 664 tCO₂e to 303 tCO₂e over the same span (down 54%).
What does a site EUI of 23.5 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. Pacific Place II's 23.5 kBtu/ft² across 252,836 sq ft works out to about 5.9 billion Btu (1,741 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 47.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 882,530 kWh of electricity and 24,606 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Pacific Place II to report its energy use?
Pacific Place II 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:3705Z/003:2025). San Francisco's ordinance requires annual benchmarking for commercial buildings over 10,000 sq ft, with administrative penalties for buildings that fail to report.
