How does 2100 M Street compare with other office buildings in Washington, DC?
The latest disclosures cover 899 office buildings in Washington, DC, out of 6,870 buildings citywide. 2100 M Street's ENERGY STAR score of 86 compares with an average of 70 across the 774 that report a score; it scores higher than 81% of them and lower than 17%. Its site EUI of 53.7 kBtu/ft² is roughly in line with the average of 55.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group.
At 231,233 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 216,135 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1969, 5 years earlier than the group's average year built (1974). 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.
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 86 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 86 means the building performs better than about 86% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 86 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 Washington, DC, 47% 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. 2100 M Street's 53.7 kBtu/ft² across 231,233 sq ft works out to about 12.4 billion Btu (3,639 MWh-equivalent) in 2012. Its source EUI of 179.2 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 5,124,544 kWh of electricity and 0 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 2100 M Street to report its energy use?
2100 M Street reports under the Clean and Affordable Energy Act / BEPS, the legal basis of Washington, DC's Building Energy Benchmarking program, which publishes each covered building's annual benchmarking results. The record shown here is the report-year 2012 disclosure (source record dc:PM1497284:2012). DC's Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS) require buildings below the performance standard to improve over compliance cycles (the first ends December 31, 2026; later cycles run five years), with penalties for buildings that fail to meet their pathway.
