How does Pacific Medical Center compare with other medical office buildings in Seattle?
The latest disclosures cover 45 medical office buildings in Seattle, out of 3,871 buildings citywide. Pacific Medical Center's ENERGY STAR score of 3 compares with an average of 60 across the 32 that report a score; it scores higher than 3% of them and lower than 94%. Its site EUI of 119.0 kBtu/ft² is about 35% above the average of 88.3 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 0.7 kgCO₂e/ft² is about half of the group average of 1.5 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 28,385 sq ft, it is about 81% below the average floor area of 145,612 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1986, 7 years later than the group's average year built (1979). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 1,266 medical office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 64 and a site EUI of 92.2 kBtu/ft².
How has Pacific Medical Center's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Pacific Medical Center, covering report years 2015–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 4 in 2015 to 3 in 2025 (-1 points); its best year on file was 2015, at 4. Site EUI moved from 107.1 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 119.0 kBtu/ft² (2025), an 11% increase. Reported emissions went from 13 tCO₂e to 15 tCO₂e over the same span (up 18%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 3 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 3 means the building performs better than about 3% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 3 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 72 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. 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. Pacific Medical Center's 119.0 kBtu/ft² across 28,385 sq ft works out to about 3.4 billion Btu (990 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 333.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 765,478 kWh of electricity for the year.
Which law requires Pacific Medical Center to report its energy use?
Pacific Medical Center 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:24180:2025).
