W Commodore (Combined With 22510)'s ENERGY STAR score of 81 compares with an average of 58 across the 117 that report a score; it scores higher than 74% of them and lower than 21%. Its site EUI of 19.5 kBtu/ft² is about 36% below the average of 30.5 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 28% below the group average of 0.9 kgCO₂e/ft².
At 56,884 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 58,727 sq ft for those buildings. Its 1960 construction date is close to the group's average year built (1960). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 4,723 non-refrigerated warehouse buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 66 and a site EUI of 26.0 kBtu/ft².
How has W Commodore (Combined With 22510)'s energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 11 Seattle disclosures for W Commodore (Combined With 22510), covering report years 2015–2025. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 74 in 2015 to 81 in 2025 (+7 points). Site EUI moved from 22.2 kBtu/ft² (2015) to 19.5 kBtu/ft² (2025), a 12% decrease. Reported emissions went from 34 tCO₂e to 37 tCO₂e over the same span (up 8%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 81 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 81 means the building performs better than about 81% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 81 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. W Commodore (Combined With 22510)'s 19.5 kBtu/ft² across 56,884 sq ft works out to about 1.1 billion Btu (325 MWh-equivalent) in 2025. Its source EUI of 33.3 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 122,130 kWh of electricity and 6,924 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires W Commodore (Combined With 22510) to report its energy use?
W Commodore (Combined With 22510) 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:22511:2025). 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.
