What does a site EUI of 13.5 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. 675 Quinn Ave's 13.5 kBtu/ft² across 40,000 sq ft works out to about 0.5 billion Btu (158 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 27.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 91,001 kWh of electricity, 2,286 therms of natural gas and 1,127 thousand gallons of water for the year.
