Gathering the information necessary to complete this report involved
contributions of time and expertise by numerous people at 26 different
departments. This report marks only the second time that the City and
County of San Francisco has publicly disclosed the relative energy
consumption of its buildings, and includes many facilities that were not
part of the 2011 report. Continued care went into ensuring that the data
was as complete and accurate as possible.

This second annual report details the energy performance of almost 450
of San Francisco’s municipal facilities during calendar year 2012,
including more than 46 million square feet of building area.
ENERGY STAR Ratings: The ENERGY STAR rating system is designed for
commercial buildings, so only some municipal facility types are eligible
for a 1-100 rating. Of the municipal facilities eligible for a rating, almost
80% outperformed the national median for similar buildings. Only 5 out
of 139 rating-eligible facilities ranked in the bottom 25% compared to
their national peers. For the second year, eleven City facilities
performed in the top 25% nationwide (the threshold for the ENERGY
STAR label) and 42 K-12 schools also met that threshold in 2012.
In February 2011, the San Francisco Existing Commercial Buildings
Energy Performance Ordinance was approved by the Board of Supervisors
and signed by Mayor Edwin M. Lee. The ordinance requires owners of
non-residential buildings over 10,000 square feet to annually benchmark
and disclose the energy performance of their buildings, using the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Portfolio Manager tool to obtain
ENERGY STAR ratings when possible.
Comparison to Prior Year: The improving energy use trend noted in the
2011 report continued this year. The overall EUI of benchmarked
facilities improved 3.6% from 2011 and 4.4% compared to 2009. The
average 2012 carbon footprint of benchmarked facilities improved
5.1% from 2011 and 7.0% compared to 2009. However, numerous
factors may influence this trend and further detailed analysis is needed
beyond the data presented here to identify all of the specific causes.
Executive Summary
Background
As the owner and occupant of hundreds of buildings, the City and County
of San Francisco has chosen to lead by example and provide
transparency about its own operations. The report also includes data on
over 130 San Francisco Unified School District facilities.
By distributing this report on behalf of 26 different agencies, the SFPUC
hopes to provide a fresh perspective on these public facilities,
highlighting energy performance successes and focusing attention and
resources on buildings that may benefit from energy improvements.
Key Findings
Comparison by Building Type: The detailed charts in this report give a rich
amount of information about each location. For each facility type, the
reader can see the individual facilities ranked in descending order of
Energy Use Intensity (EUI), plus an indication of each facility’s annual
carbon footprint and a profile of what times of year are most (and least)
energy intensive. Summary charts provide insights into the energy use
of each municipal facility type.
Calendar Year 2012 Highlights:
 Benchmarking results are provided for 446 municipal facilities
across 29 facility types, including the addition of SFUSD buildings.
 For each facility type, buildings are ranked in order of Energy Use
Intensity (EUI, or energy use per square foot).
 Overall in 2012, the EUI for municipal buildings improved 3.6%
carbon footprint decreased
from the prior year, and the overall
5.1% from the prior year.
 Nearly 80% of San Francisco facilities in ENERGY STAR building
types performed equal to or better than the national average.
 Only five locations ranked in the bottom 25% compared to similar
buildings nationwide.
 San Francisco City Hall is among the locations that scored high
enough for the ENERGY STAR label in 2012.
Making Use of the Results
The findings suggest that San Francisco’s municipal buildings performed
well in 2012. However, the results here are just a first step. The wide
5
variation in energy performance within most facility types suggests there
are many opportunities for improvement.
This report is one part of efforts by the SFPUC and other departments to
track and improve the energy efficiency of municipal buildings. The
SFPUC offers a range of energy efficiency services such as energy audits
and green building commissioning that can identify technical deficiencies
and recommend operations and maintenance improvements. The role of
building occupants in using energy wisely is also crucial.
Developing this annual report continues to be a major undertaking
supported by numerous departments. Each department should look in
more detail at facilities that appear as outliers in the data and provide
data improvements where necessary to improve the benchmarking
process in future years. The SFPUC is hopeful that the format of this
report provides value to municipal building owners, managers, occupants,
and the general public, and welcomes suggestions about how to improve
this report in future years.

decades. Combined with the efforts of individual departments, these
energy improvements in existing buildings save the City millions of dollars
per year in energy costs while also improving the indoor environment for
building occupants. Additionally, as public facilities are built or undergo
major renovations, they must meet the energy performance and LEED
Gold standards of the City’s Green Building Ordinance and Environment
Code Chapter 7.
However, to most effectively take action, building owners and occupants
need to be informed of cost-effective opportunities for energy savings.
With this in mind, the Board of Supervisors approved the San Francisco
Existing Commercial Buildings Energy Performance Ordinance in February
2011, amending the Environment Code. The ordinance requires owners
of non-residential buildings larger than 10,000 square feet (both privately
and municipally owned) to annually disclose their buildings’ energy
performance by benchmarking against similar facilities.
Introduction
The City and County of San Francisco is strongly committed to reducing
its impact on the environment and its contributions to climate change.
Through key policy documents including the Climate Action Plan and the
2011 Updated Electricity Resource Plan, the City has laid out strategies
to achieve its ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals.
One of the actions the City is taking in support of those commitments is
to reduce the energy consumption of public buildings. San Francisco’s
public buildings are fortunate to obtain their electricity from GHG-free
sources, primarily the City’s Hetch Hetchy Power system. However,
responsible use of this public resource demands that the City make the
most efficient use of this energy. Also, these buildings consume natural
gas and steam, which contribute to climate change.
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) has offered
energy efficiency services to its power customers for the past three
With support from 25 other departments that own or lease full buildings,
the SFPUC has issued this report to provide San Francisco’s agencies and
the general public a better understanding of how the City’s municipal
facilities perform. This report identifies high performing buildings as well
as opportunities for improvement, and is an attempt by the City to lead by
example and provide transparency related to government operations.
The information in this report is just a first step. Together with the more
detailed information gained from energy audits and the in-depth
knowledge of building owners and occupants, this report will help City
departments target resources to locations that could benefit the most
from energy-related improvements.

San Francisco’s Approach to Benchmarking
Eligible buildings can receive a 1-100 score (with 50 being the median
and 100 the best) that compares a structure to similar buildings
nationwide.
In 2011, San Francisco joined a growing number of cities that have
recently adopted ordinances requiring building owners to benchmark and
publicly disclose the energy performance of their facilities each year.
Energy benchmarking is simply a way to track the performance of a
building over time and compare that building to other similar structures,
in order to help identify opportunities for improvement.
The inclusion of K-12 schools in this year’s report has greatly increased
the number of rating-eligible facilities compared to the 2011 annual
report. However, the bulk of the City’s municipal building types—the
libraries, fire stations, museums, recreation centers, etc.—are still
benchmarked based on on-site Energy Use Intensity (EUI), which is a
measure of annual energy use per square foot of building area. The
resulting EUI for each facility is then compared to the EUI of other San
Francisco municipal buildings of a similar type. While national average
EUI figures are published for a variety of building types, these figures are
not normalized for climate and thus are not an ideal method of
understanding how well a building in San Francisco performs. A building
in San Francisco’s mild climate would tend to perform relatively well
compared to its national peers on the basis of EUI, without revealing
much about the building’s actual efficiency.
While the concept of energy benchmarking is simple, the undertaking of
accurately performing this process for San Francisco’s hundreds of
municipal buildings continues to be relatively complex. As the City’s
public electricity provider, the SFPUC has opted to coordinate the
required data gathering effort and publish a consolidated annual report
for all City departments. This second annual report builds upon last year’s
effort, while also expanding the number of benchmarked municipal
buildings by almost 50%. Over the past two years, SFPUC staff has
continued to work with representatives of 25 different departments to
gather, verify, and update the facility data necessary for this report.
This report includes more facilities than required by the ordinance.
Although the ordinance only requires benchmarking buildings larger than
10,000 square feet, this municipal report includes buildings of smaller
size where a meaningful benchmark could be established. The smallest
buildings—park restrooms and kiosks, for example—are excluded. Also,
this report includes numerous buildings owned by the City outside of the
geographic boundaries of San Francisco, as well as some privately owned
buildings that are occupied in full by City departments.
San Francisco’s ordinance, like those in other cities, identifies the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Portfolio Manager tool as the
preferred method of benchmarking for private-sector buildings. As a wellrecognized national rating tool that draws on the best available energy
use data, Portfolio Manager (and the associated ENERGY STAR rating
system) is an excellent way for owners and occupants of eligible facilities
to see how their buildings stack up against local and national peers.
Another decision was the use of “on-site” rather than “source” EUI as the
primary metric in this report, due to the City’s source of electricity. To
derive source EUI, the EPA’s Portfolio Manager tool uses national
averages to convert electricity used in a facility to the total energy
required to supply this electricity. In most cases, electricity delivery
involves substantial conversion losses through the burning of fossil fuel,
plus some losses due to transmission and distribution of the resulting
power. Portfolio Manager recommends an average site-source ratio of
3.34 to account for these losses. However, the SFPUC’s Hetch Hetchy
Power system and some local distributed generation provide nearly all of
the electricity needed by San Francisco’s municipal buildings. Since these
power sources do not involve converting fossil fuels to electricity, use of a
national average site-source ratio would be misleading. Therefore, all
comparisons in this report (with the exception of ENERGY STAR ratings)
are based on site energy use.
While this benchmarking report is a new step toward identifying energy
efficiency opportunities, there are several existing efforts to track and
8
report the energy efficiency of the City’s buildings. Some City departments
(e.g. the Real Estate Division and the California Academy of Sciences)
were already using Portfolio Manager to benchmark specific facilities
prior to the requirements of the new ordinance. Also, the SFPUC has
distributed quarterly Energy Usage Reports to every department for
several years, giving departments regular information about fluctuations
in energy use for each of their sites. The SFPUC and other departments
have also annually contributed energy data for every City facility as part of
the Climate Action Plan process coordinated by the Department of the
Environment.
It is the hope of the SFPUC that the format of this report will be helpful to
City departments and other readers as a way to supplement and improve
upon other information sources about San Francisco’s municipal
sustainability performance. As changes are made to the EPA’s ENERGY
STAR system, and as San Francisco’s private sector buildings begin to
release their own energy performance data, the SFPUC will look for ways
to further refine its benchmarking methodology in order to improve the
accuracy and relevancy of its reporting and to help lead the way in
improving access to energy data in San Francisco and the nation.

Energy Use in San Francisco’s Municipal Buildings
Information Sources and Assumptions
Creating an accurate energy performance benchmark of San Francisco’s
municipal buildings requires information from numerous sources.
Energy data: Electricity, natural gas, and steam data is stored in the
SFPUC’s energy accounting database, which contains metered monthly
usage for all utility meters where billing is managed by the SFPUC.
Some additional natural gas data was obtained from PG&E, in cases
where the site pays PG&E directly for natural gas and the meter
information was provided by the individual department to the SFPUC.
Natural gas data for SFUSD facilities was provided by SFUSD. There are
17 facilities where a portion of energy use records are missing. These
are listed separately at the end of the report.1
Facility data: Accurate facility data is just as important as accurate energy
use data, in order to reliably benchmark a building. As part of the initial
report (calendar year 2011), the SFPUC and other departments
engaged in a thorough verification process to review available building
and operations data and supply additional detail for the benchmarking
effort. This verification process continued for the additional facilities
added to the current report, and departments were also asked to
provide any updates for buildings that were previously included. For a
description of this process, see the inset on page 13.
This report generally refers to “facilities” rather than “buildings”,
because in many cases there are energy meters shared by multiple
buildings at one location. These locations are benchmarked as
campuses. For instance, the Airport is listed as one facility, but contains
70 individual buildings. San Francisco General Hospital is
benchmarked as a single facility but is actually a campus of more than
15 individual buildings. Similarly, Moscone Center North and South are
considered as a campus due to their shared mechanical systems, as
are the War Memorial Veterans Building and Opera House.
In some cases, facilities contain more than one space type. For
instance, the Hall of Justice is a mixed-use facility that contains offices,
a courthouse, and jail areas. Where this would affect the ENERGY STAR
rating, multiple space types were entered into EPA’s Portfolio Manager.
Departments also supplied the SFPUC with the size of parking garages
and parking lots connected to buildings. Where attached parking would
affect the ENERGY STAR rating, this data was entered into Portfolio
Manager as an additional space type. However, it is important to note
that the EUI calculations in this report include parking garage area as
part of a facility’s square footage, which in most cases decreases the
EUI of a building due to the lower energy intensity of a typical parking
garage. Parking lots are not included in the EUI calculations.
Civic Center steam loop: Two historic Civic Center buildings obtain steam
from the NRG Energy Center steam loop but do not have individual
steam meters: Bill Graham Civic Auditorium and the DPH Central Office
at 101 Grove. To generate an estimated EUI for these buildings, the
unmetered portion of Civic Center steam use was apportioned to these
two buildings based on their square footage. These buildings are not
eligible for an ENERGY STAR rating due to the absence of accurate
steam meter data. (A steam sub-meter was installed at City Hall at the
end of 2011, providing accurate steam use data for City Hall.)

In calendar year 2012, the overall Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of the 445
benchmarked facilities (excluding the Airport) was 74.74 kBtu of on-site

Energy Use in Municipal Facilities: Calendar Year 2012
The buildings benchmarked in this report represent over 72% of the electricity, natural gas, and district steam used in San Francisco’s municipal facilities
in calendar year 2012. Shown in dark green, these 446 facilities (including San Francisco International Airport) used a total of 3,791,754 MMBtu of onsite energy. This report also provides partial benchmark results for an additional 5% of municipal facility energy use, though these facilities cannot be
accurately benchmarked on a per-square-foot basis. 22% of the on-site energy used in municipal facilities is excluded from this report, as indicated. [Note
that the figures for the Housing Authority (SFHA) and Port are partial totals that exclude non-SFPUC energy such as natural gas.]

Benchmarked Energy Use, by Building Category
(Calendar Year 2012 Benchmarked Energy Use = 3,791,754 MMBtu)
Comparing the two charts above, some building types consume energy
out of proportion to their size. For instance, the two hospitals comprise
only 4.5% of the benchmarked square footage, but consumed 17% of
benchmarked energy in 2012 (EUI of 316.1). This is largely due to the
hospitals’ operating hours and intensity of use. On the other hand,
parking garages (which are unheated) make up 11.5% of benchmarked
square footage but used only 1.1% of the year’s benchmarked energy use
(EUI of only 7.9). Museums have a higher than average EUI (likely due to
to account for year-to-year fluctuations in the number of heating and cooling

unique climate control needs), while schools on average are less energy
intensive (partly because they are closed in the summer). The average
EUI figure for each building type is found in the next section of the report.
Municipal facilities use GHG-free SFPUC electricity, natural gas supplied
by PG&E or an aggregator (either the California Department of General
Services or SPURR), and steam supplied by NRG. To compare these
forms of on-site energy use, units have been converted throughout this
report to British thermal units (Btu) of energy.4 The charts below show the
different energy sources used at the 445 benchmarked facilities plus the

Sources and Verification of Facility Data
To develop a list of facilities, SFPUC staff began with a list of over 1,000
individually metered municipal facilities in the Power Enterprise energy
accounting database, and cross-referenced this data with databases of
owned and leased facilities maintained by the City’s Real Estate Division
and Capital Planning Committee.
Next, the SFPUC screened out facilities owned by agencies not covered by
the ordinance, such as the Housing Authority and City College. The Port of
San Francisco, which maintains its own facility records and natural gas
use data, will independently report its energy performance data.
Of the 90 facility categories in the database, those that did not meet the
definition of “building” were also screened out. These included bridges,
bus stops, fire pumps, sirens, street lights, traffic signals, water pumps,
etc. While extremely small buildings such as park restrooms and kiosks
were excluded from the report, numerous other buildings smaller than the
ordinance’s 10,000 square foot threshold were included where they
provided a meaningful comparison to other buildings.
To maximize the accuracy of the facility list used in the initial 2011 report,
the SFPUC displayed all known facility data in a web-based survey tool
and asked each department to verify its list of facilities and the
associated data. The SFPUC supplied a list of meters associated with
each facility, for each department to correct meter matchups if necessary.
Representatives from all 26 affected departments (including SFUSD for
the 2012 report) verified the data and provided corrections and missing
information. Data verified through this process included building square
footage, number of building occupants, operating hours, year built (and
renovated), and other ENERGY STAR facility characteristics depending on
building type.
The SFPUC and other Departments were able to verify most facility data.
Square footage information and partial meter data from a small fraction
of relevant facilities is still unknown. A “partial benchmark” of those
facilities is included in this report, and an effort will be made to obtain the
missing data in future years.

2012 Energy Benchmarking Results
Energy Use Intensity (EUI) for all Facilities
ENERGY STAR Ratings
As described previously, the primary method of benchmarking the
facilities in this report is to compare the on-site annual Energy Use
Intensity (EUI) of each facility to other San Francisco municipal facilities of
the same type. By listing the facilities of each type in descending order of
EUI, the reader can quickly see which facilities consumed the most
energy per square foot, and which consumed the least. While the charts
on the far right-hand side of pages 17-31 show the total energy use for
each facility, the primary comparison is on a per-square-foot basis.
This EUI comparison is helpful, but not perfect. The wide variation in
energy performance within many facility types indicates the potential for
energy efficiency retrofit projects to improve the poorer performers.
However, each department should look in more detail at the list of its
buildings to help interpret the results. Some facility types are susceptible
to having complex energy meter arrangements that do not always
correspond to discrete buildings (e.g. locations in Golden Gate Park and
other Recreation & Park clubhouses and playgrounds), which means the
EUI for some facilities includes energy use from adjacent areas as well.
To help track changes in energy use over time, a comparison to calendar
year 2011 EUI is included for each site. This comparison is also not
Since the ENERGY STAR rating system was developed primarily for
commercial buildings, the majority of municipal buildings in San
Francisco are building types that are not eligible for a 1-100 rating.
However, of the 446 municipal facilities benchmarked in this report, 139
of them do have building characteristics and available data that make
them eligible for an ENERGY STAR 1-100 rating. The SFPUC entered data
for those 139 facilities into the EPA’s Portfolio Manager system, which
generated ratings that allow a comparison to national averages. Unlike
the EUI data, these ratings take into account local climate and weather
conditions, as well as building characteristics such as weekly operating
hours and number of occupants.
In general, seven types of San Francisco municipal facilities fall into a
category eligible for an ENERGY STAR rating: Office buildings,
Courthouses, Mental Health Centers (Medical Office), Hospitals,
Warehouses, K-12 Schools, and Wastewater Treatment Plants. Of the
facilities in appropriate categories, some did not qualify for a rating
because they did not meet ENERGY STAR’s minimum operating
thresholds (for instance, the buildings were too small or did not have any
full-time occupants). The ratings for these non-qualifying facilities are

listed as “N.Q.” along with explanations. Several other locations are
qualifying building types but the SFPUC did not have adequate facility
data to generate an accurate rating. Finally, the City’s wastewater
treatment plants are not rated in this report, as ENERGY STAR’s
methodology for rating these facilities requires more detailed monthly
operations data than was available at the publication time of this report.
As can be seen in the chart above, 53 of the 139 rating-eligible facilities
achieved a preliminary score in the top 25% of similar buildings
nationwide, and therefore appear tentatively qualified to receive the
ENERGY STAR label for calendar year 2012.6 Almost 80% of ratingeligible San Francisco facilities performed equal to or better than the
national median for similar buildings. Only five facilities were rated in the
bottom 25% compared to similar buildings nationwide. Individual ratings
for all of these facilities can be seen in the charts on the following pages,
grouped by facility type. The top 11 (non-school7) facilities are listed
individually to the right side of this page.
becomes an additional lens with which to view the relative performance
of the facilities in this report. Emissions factors used in this report are
explained on the next page.
Data Uncertainties and Exceptions
As described in the previous section of this report, a small number of
facilities received a “partial benchmark” due to missing square footage or
meter information. These facilities are listed separately on the last page
of the benchmarking results.
In addition to these partially benchmarked buildings, there are notes (#)
beside the names of some facilities. These notes clarify situations where
energy or facility data is treated as a special case, or where facilities need
further investigation in future years. Among these are facilities that are in
eligible ENERGY STAR categories, but do not meet the EPA’s thresholds
for ratings. For a key to these notes, see Appendix A.
Carbon Footprint
The GHG emissions of each facility (on a per square foot basis) is
provided to help integrate this benchmarking report with departments’
annual Climate Action Plan reporting. The average 2012 carbon footprint
of the benchmarked facilities (5.26 pounds of CO2 emissions per square
foot) improved 5.1% from 2011 and 7.0% compared to 2009.
One key difference between San Francisco’s municipal buildings and
their national counterparts is that electricity in municipal buildings is
GHG-free electricity from the SFPUC’s Hetch Hetchy Power system. This
difference is not taken into account by the ENERGY STAR ratings, thus
Preliminary ratings for calendar year 2012 obtained in June 2013. To obtain
the ENERGY STAR label, the building owner must have the results validated by a
licensed engineer or architect, and submit a formal application to the EPA.

Although preliminary ENERGY STAR ratings are provided for K-12 schools on
the following pages, further site investigations are needed before the scores can
be validated. Some operating characteristics (number of personal computers
and number of walk-in freezer/refrigeration units) were estimated at each school
based on national per-square-foot averages. The 11 office and medical office facilities that appear qualified for the
ENERGY STAR label for calendar year 2012 (subject to validation) are:

How to Interpret Data on the Following Pages
Each facility’s preliminary 2012 ENERGY STAR rating is shown
here. Facilities in the top 25% of similar buildings nationwide
are indicated with a green dot. Facilities in the bottom 25%
are indicated with a red dot. “N/A” indicates a facility type not
eligible for a rating, or that inadequate information is available.
“N.Q.” indicates the facility is an eligible category but does not
qualify for a rating based on EPA’s operating thresholds.
The 2012 Energy Benchmarking results are grouped by facility type, and
provide key data points about each facility, as well as the facility’s energy
performance in calendar year 2012.
General category of building, corresponding
to energy use snapshot in previous chapter
Each facility’s estimated 2012 carbon footprint is shown here
as pounds of CO2 emissions per square foot of building area.
For electricity in 2012, GHG emissions associated with SFPUC
electricity were zero. Natural gas emissions are derived from
national averages cited by ENERGY STAR (11.7 lbs CO2 per
therm of natural gas). GHG emissions from steam provided by
NRG Energy Center (0.199 lbs CO2 per pound of steam).

Putting the Results in Context
The data in this report provides a snapshot of energy performance in San
Francisco’s municipal buildings during calendar year 2012. The report is
primarily intended to help inform building owners and other decision
makers about where to target public resources, and also provides
information to energy efficiency researchers and the general public.
However, energy benchmarking must be seen as part of a wider array of
energy efficiency strategies that can reduce the City’s energy use and
improve the operation and comfort of its public facilities.
Limitations of report data: To make the most out of this report, City
departments should look in more detail at facilities that appear as
outliers in the data. For instance, a poorly functioning HVAC system can
result in large amounts of wasted energy, but in other cases may
appear on paper as an energy efficient building because systems are
not functioning. Additionally, while the SFPUC made every effort to
accurately match meters to facilities and also indicate where a facility
was vacant for any significant period of time, readers should be aware
that incomplete meter matchups or changes in occupancy may skew
the results for a particular facility. As described elsewhere in this report,
some types of facilities (e.g. park and recreational buildings) may be
particularly susceptible to such meter and occupancy uncertainties.
Report improvements in future years: This is the second year that this
report has been issued. This year’s report was improved in numerous
ways by the suggestions and contributions of a variety of people and
departments. Still, there is room for further improvement. For the small
number of buildings with incomplete meter information, the SFPUC will
continue to encourage City departments to fill these gaps. The SFPUC
will also continue to work with departments to improve the accuracy of
meter matchups, as described above. As the EPA’s ENERGY STAR
program and other national energy databases evolve, the City will seek
opportunities to obtain ENERGY STAR ratings or other meaningful
climate-adjusted national comparisons for additional building types
such as libraries, fire stations, and museums. Future annual reports
could also include benchmarks for wastewater facilities, which are
benchmarked according to more complex metrics than square footage.
The role of benchmarking: Benchmarking the energy use of a portfolio of
buildings can help identify which buildings are outliers among their
peers, and can be extremely useful for tracking changes in energy use
from year to year. Once outliers are identified, on-site energy audits can
be performed to identify cost-effective retrofit opportunities in a
particular building. The SFPUC offers a green building commissioning
program to City departments, which can assist with new building
projects and major renovations. Retro-commissioning of existing
buildings can also identify equipment deficiencies and recommend
operations and maintenance improvements to save energy and
improve building performance. The role of building occupants in using
energy wisely is also crucial, and the SFPUC is interested to work with
City departments to share the results of this report with employees and
other building users to help reinforce positive changes in occupant
behavior.
The findings of this report suggest that San Francisco’s public buildings
performed well in 2012. The SFPUC hopes that City departments and
others will find this data useful in better understanding the performance
of individual facilities, and encourages readers to suggest improvements
to the format of the report for future years. As one part of a
comprehensive strategy to reduce the City’s overall energy use and
greenhouse gas emissions, the SFPUC offers this report to help better
inform the conversation.

Adjacent facilities combined for benchmarking, due to shared
mechanical systems.
Facilities on the Civic Center steam loop. Steam use for Bill
Graham Civic Auditorium and DPH Central Office is not metered
at individual facility level and is estimated here based on square
footage. City Hall steam meter installed at beginning of 2012,
making comparisons to prior year invalid for all three facilities.
Facilities in Golden Gate Park, in cases where electrical meters
specific to the facility cannot be located.
This location was under construction or vacant for an extended
period of time during a portion of calendar years 2011 or 2012.
The metering arrangement at the SECF needs further
investigation. It is assumed this energy use includes both
electricity and natural gas for the nursery and greenhouses.
Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating, due to small size.
Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating for dormitories, due to
inadequate number of rooms.
Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating for hospitals. As a longterm care facility, Laguna Honda Hospital is not eligible for the
hospital category. The square footage listed includes the new
hospital buildings as of 2010 plus the square footage of old
wings A, B, C, and H. The total excludes 120,000 square feet
under remodel in buildings K, L, M, and O, which will be
reoccupied in future years.
Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating, due to more than 10% of
the mixed-use facility being classified as “Other” space type.
Facility operations data required for ENERGY STAR rating is
unavailable at time of report publication.

Building assumes on-site energy generation. Located at the site
of the SFPUC’s Moccasin Powerhouse in Moccasin, California,
the all-electric facility obtains its energy from hydropower
resources in the immediate vicinity. Therefore, the conversion
and transmission losses of a typical facility are not applicable.
Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating, due to lack of full-time
occupants.
Natural gas use abnormally low, likely due to inoperable
systems.
The square footage and energy use listed for these shared
stations represents the Muni portion only, excluding BART.
Annual propane use at this site unknown.
Natural gas use unknown. Some or all natural gas use data is
missing, gas meter is damaged, or natural gas appears to be
paid directly to PG&E.
Some or all electricity use data is missing or electrical meter is
damaged.
A significant portion of the Airport is in operation 24 hours per
day. For an EUI comparison among facility types based on
average hours of operation, see Appendix C.

Photo: Alvarado Elementary School. Opened in 1926.
Alvarado Elementary used 36% less energy in calendar year 2012 than the
previous year, due to a significant decrease in natural gas use. The building’s
preliminary ENERGY STAR rating indicates that it performed better than 93%
of similar K-12 schools nationwide.
The SFPUC completed installation of a 50 kW solar photovoltaic system on
the roof of the school in late 2012. The on-site solar production is expected
to equal almost half of Alvarado’s annual electricity use. (Owner: SFUSD)
