How has Lakeside Plaza's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Lakeside Plaza, covering report years 2015–2025. Site EUI moved from 87.2 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 59.5 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 32% decrease. Reported emissions went from 17 tCO₂e to 12 tCO₂e over the same span (down 30%).
What does a site EUI of 59.5 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. Lakeside Plaza's 59.5 kBtu/ft² across 55,912 sq ft works out to about 3.3 billion Btu (975 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 166.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 576,430 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires Lakeside Plaza to report its energy use?
Lakeside Plaza 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:22860:2025). 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.
