How has Seattle Central Community College Master Campus Id (Benchmarking)'s energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 4 Seattle disclosures for Seattle Central Community College Master Campus Id (Benchmarking), covering report years 2022–2025. Site EUI moved from 76.6 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 64.0 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 16% decrease. Reported emissions went from 2,482 tCO₂e to 1,903 tCO₂e over the same span (down 23%).

What does a site EUI of 64.0 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. Seattle Central Community College Master Campus Id (Benchmarking)'s 64.0 kBtu/ft² across 122,976 sq ft works out to about 7.9 billion Btu (2,307 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 125.6 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 7,180,875 kWh of electricity and 74,568 therms of natural gas for the year.

Which law requires Seattle Central Community College Master Campus Id (Benchmarking) to report its energy use?
