How does The Westin Georgetown compare with other hotel buildings in Washington, DC?

The latest disclosures cover 257 hotel buildings in Washington, DC, out of 6,870 buildings citywide. The Westin Georgetown's ENERGY STAR score of 50 compares with an average of 58 across the 251 that report a score; it scores higher than 36% of them and lower than 63%. Its site EUI of 68.5 kBtu/ft² is about 22% below the average of 87.6 kBtu/ft² — it uses less energy per square foot than the typical building in that group. Its emissions intensity of 6.9 kgCO₂e/ft² is roughly in line with the group average of 6.9 kgCO₂e/ft².

At 212,483 sq ft, it is roughly in line with the average floor area of 227,860 sq ft for those buildings. It was built in 1984, 10 years later than the group's average year built (1974). Across all 24 jurisdictions BuildingCensus covers, the 3,812 hotel buildings average an ENERGY STAR score of 65 and a site EUI of 77.8 kBtu/ft².

What does an ENERGY STAR score of 50 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 50 means the building performs better than about 50% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 50 falls in band D — lowest band (1–54). It sits 25 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. The Westin Georgetown's 68.5 kBtu/ft² across 212,483 sq ft works out to about 14.6 billion Btu (4,266 MWh-equivalent) in 2017. Its source EUI of 191.5 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 4,253,832 kWh of electricity, 449 therms of natural gas and 9,938 thousand gallons of water for the year.

Which law requires The Westin Georgetown to report its energy use?

The Westin Georgetown 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 2017 disclosure (source record dc:PM4392623:2017). 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.
