How has Sherry Hall's energy performance changed over time?

BuildingCensus holds 4 Washington, DC disclosures for Sherry Hall, covering report years 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017. Its ENERGY STAR score went from 23 in 2013 to 39 in 2017 (+16 points). Site EUI moved from 108.0 kBtu/ft² (2013) to 86.4 kBtu/ft² (2017), a 20% decrease. Reported emissions went from 424 tCO₂e to 327 tCO₂e over the same span (down 23%).

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 39 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 39 means the building performs better than about 39% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 39 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 36 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. 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. Sherry Hall's 86.4 kBtu/ft² across 50,880 sq ft works out to about 4.4 billion Btu (1,288 MWh-equivalent) in 2017. Its source EUI of 156.8 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 470,841 kWh of electricity, 27,915 therms of natural gas and 2,062 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires Sherry Hall to report its energy use?
