A brief description of when and why the energy consumption baseline was adopted:
The baseline for each building depends upon when the sub-metering system was operational. To the largest extent possible, we try to utilize 2007 as that is the benchmark year for our climate commitments.
Source-site ratio for imported electricity:
Total energy consumption per unit of floor area:
| Site energy | Source energy | |
| Performance year | 0.09 MMBtu per square foot | 0.15 MMBtu per square foot |
| Baseline year | 0.13 MMBtu per square foot | 0.13 MMBtu per square foot |
Percentage reduction in total source energy consumption per unit of floor area from baseline:
