How has Fairway 2113 Maryland's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 3 Washington, DC disclosures for Fairway 2113 Maryland, covering report years 2022–2024. Its ENERGY STAR score was 90 in both 2022 and 2024. Site EUI moved from 39.2 kBtu/ft² (2022) to 37.6 kBtu/ft² (2024), a 4% decrease. Reported emissions went from 81 tCO₂e to 79 tCO₂e over the same span (down 3%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 90 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 90 means the building performs better than about 90% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 90 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. Fairway 2113 Maryland's 37.6 kBtu/ft² across 27,360 sq ft works out to about 1 billion Btu (301 MWh-equivalent) in 2024. Its source EUI of 84.1 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 204,371 kWh of electricity, 3,308 therms of natural gas and 1,469 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires Fairway 2113 Maryland to report its energy use?

Fairway 2113 Maryland 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 2024 disclosure (source record dc:PM19908953:2024). 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.
