What does a site EUI of 54.6 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. Julius Horton Building Llc's 54.6 kBtu/ft² across 28,747 sq ft works out to about 1.6 billion Btu (460 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 128.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 343,161 kWh of electricity and 3,988 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Julius Horton Building Llc to report its energy use?
