How does MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH compare with other multifamily MR (5-9) buildings in Seattle?
The latest disclosures cover 22 multifamily MR (5-9) buildings in Seattle, out of 3,871 buildings citywide. MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH's ENERGY STAR score of 95 compares with an average of 91 across the 7 that report a score; it scores higher than 29% of them and lower than 43%. Its site EUI of 32.5 kBtu/ft² is about 16% below the average of 38.9 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 22% below the group average of 0.9 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 84,431 sq ft, it is about 31% below the average floor area of 121,840 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 2020, 20 years later than the group's average year built (2000).
How has MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 Seattle disclosures for MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 90 in 2022 to 95 in 2024 (+5 points). Site EUI moved from 47.0 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 32.5 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 31% decrease. Reported emissions went from 183 tCO₂e to 139 tCO₂e over the same span (down 24%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 95 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 95 means the building performs better than about 95% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 95 falls in band A — high performer (85–100). 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. MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH's 32.5 kBtu/ft² across 84,431 sq ft works out to about 2.7 billion Btu (804 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 71.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 1,245,021 kWh of electricity and 21,580 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH to report its energy use?
MODERA BROADWAY SOUTH 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 2024 disclosure (source record seattle:24296:2024). 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.
