How has Edgewood Elementary Campus's energy performance changed over time?
BuildingCensus holds 3 Washington, DC disclosures for Edgewood Elementary Campus, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 96 in 2022 to 92 in 2024 (-4 points); its best year on file was 2022, at 96. Site EUI moved from 39.5 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 42.0 kBtu/ft² (2024), an 6% increase. Reported emissions went from 146 tCO₂e to 157 tCO₂e over the same span (up 7%).
What does an ENERGY STAR score of 92 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 92 means the building performs better than about 92% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 92 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. Edgewood Elementary Campus's 42.0 kBtu/ft² across 47,354 sq ft works out to about 2 billion Btu (583 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 77.7 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 270,471 kWh of electricity, 5,191 therms of natural gas and 444 thousand gallons of water for the year.
Which law requires Edgewood Elementary Campus to report its energy use?
