How has Fairview Church's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Fairview Church, covering report years 2015–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 81 in 2015 to 63 in 2024 (-18 points); its best year on file was 2015, at 81. Site EUI moved from 43.5 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 38.3 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 12% decrease. Reported emissions went from 82 tCO₂e to 72 tCO₂e over the same span (down 12%).
What does a site EUI of 38.3 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. Fairview Church's 38.3 kBtu/ft² across 45,680 sq ft works out to about 1.7 billion Btu (513 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 53.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 99,167 kWh of electricity and 14,093 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Fairview Church to report its energy use?
Fairview Church 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:21723:2025). 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.
