How does Marriott Residence Inn compare with other hotel buildings in Seattle?
The latest disclosures cover 86 hotel buildings in Seattle, out of 3,871 buildings citywide. Marriott Residence Inn's ENERGY STAR score of 84 compares with an average of 76 across the 78 that report a score; it scores higher than 50% of them and lower than 47%. Its site EUI of 63.5 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 68.4 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 1.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 15% below the group average of 2.0 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 282,863 sq ft, it is about 70% above the average floor area of 165,912 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1990, 20 years later than the group's average year built (1971). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,812 hotel buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 77.8 kBtu/ft².
How has Marriott Residence Inn's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Marriott Residence Inn, covering report years 2015–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 40 in 2015 to 84 in 2025 (+44 points); its best year on file was 2020, at 87. Site EUI moved from 79.9 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 63.5 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 21% decrease. Reported emissions went from 496 tCO₂e to 408 tCO₂e over the same span (down 18%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 84 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 84 means the building performs better than about 84% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 84 falls in band B — above median (70–84). Scores of 75 or higher meet the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification; certification itself is a separate, verified application that the disclosure does not record. In Seattle, 69% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
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. Marriott Residence Inn's 63.5 kBtu/ft² across 282,863 sq ft works out to about 18 billion Btu (5,264 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 126.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 2,372,390 kWh of electricity and 70,321 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Marriott Residence Inn to report its energy use?
Marriott Residence Inn 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:102:2025). 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.
