Frequently asked questions

Which large Los Angeles buildings have the worst energy grades?

3600 BARHAM BLVD reports the lowest ENERGY STAR score (1) among Los Angeles buildings over 50,000 sq ft. EBEWE requires annual benchmarking plus 5-year audit/retro-commissioning cycles for buildings over 20,000 sq ft; non-compliance is subject to citation and fines.

Does a low score mean the building breaks the law?

No. A low ENERGY STAR score is a national efficiency percentile, not a violation. It does correlate with exposure under building-performance standards (carbon caps, retrofit mandates), which is why owners, lenders and retrofit contractors watch these lists.
