How does Sand Point Building 29 compare with other office buildings in Seattle?
The latest disclosures cover 497 office buildings in Seattle, out of 3,871 buildings citywide. Sand Point Building 29's ENERGY STAR score of 28 compares with an average of 76 across the 378 that report a score; it scores higher than 6% of them and lower than 94%. Its site EUI of 123.0 kBtu/ft² is about 175% above the average of 44.8 kBtu/ft² — it uses more energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 4.6 kgCO₂e/ft² is about 563% above the group average of 0.7 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 21,931 sq ft, it is about 89% below the average floor area of 196,452 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1960, 5 years earlier than the group's average year built (1965). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 15,264 office buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 73 and a site EUI of 59.3 kBtu/ft².
How has Sand Point Building 29's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for Sand Point Building 29, covering report years 2015–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 21 in 2015 to 28 in 2025 (+7 points); its best year on file was 2017, at 34. Site EUI moved from 133.3 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 123.0 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 8% decrease. Reported emissions went from 136 tCO₂e to 148 tCO₂e over the same span (up 9%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 28 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 28 means the building performs better than about 28% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 28 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 47 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. Sand Point Building 29's 123.0 kBtu/ft² across 21,931 sq ft works out to about 2.7 billion Btu (791 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 186.0 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 303,192 kWh of electricity and 28,832 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires Sand Point Building 29 to report its energy use?
Sand Point Building 29 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:40034:2025). 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.
