How does Econo Mini compare with other self-storage facility buildings in Seattle?
The latest disclosures cover 48 self-storage facility buildings in Seattle, out of 3,871 buildings citywide. Its site EUI of 22.6 kBtu/ft² is about 45% above the average of 15.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.9 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 200% above the group average of 0.3 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 22,522 sq ft, it is about 74% below the average floor area of 88,206 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1947, 29 years earlier than the group's average year built (1976). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,050 self-storage facility buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 75 and a site EUI of 9.4 kBtu/ft².
How has Econo Mini's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Econo Mini, covering report years 2015–2025. Site EUI moved from 32.4 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 22.6 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 30% decrease. Reported emissions went from 33 tCO₂e to 20 tCO₂e over the same span (down 38%).
What does a site EUI of 22.6 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. Econo Mini's 22.6 kBtu/ft² across 22,522 sq ft works out to about 0.5 billion Btu (149 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 31.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 29,541 kWh of electricity and 4,071 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Econo Mini to report its energy use?
Econo Mini reports under the Seattle Energy Benchmarking Ordinance (SMC 22.920), the legal basis of Seattle's Building Energy Benchmarking program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2025 disclosure (source record seattle:25001:2025). Seattle's Building Emissions Performance Standard (adopted 2023) applies to buildings over 20,000 sq ft: benchmarking verification is due 2027–2030 and initial emissions targets 2031–2035, reaching net zero by 2041–2050, with fines for non-compliance.
