| Name | Energy Use Intensity per GSF |
| Metric category | Environmental |
| Metric objective | Calculate the efficiency of energy use intensity per GSF for the scenario |
| Measurement | Total Energy Use / Total Gross Area Total Energy Use = For a proposed location (lease or owned), the system uses the Estimated Total Annual Energy Use per GSF field from the selected Building Class to calculate the Estimated Annual Energy Use; for an existing building or an existing lease, the system maps the Annual Energy Use field to the Supply Summary. Total Gross Area = The sum of the Supply Summary’s Gross Area field; includes leased, owned, and proposed locations; includes only records that are in the current focus period. |
