Data Dictionary

Column Type Label Description
Site text

The name of the building, streetlight, meter, or pump.

Site ID text

Alphanumeric building code.

Year text

Energy and water data is presented as a total amount by calendar year.

Electricity (kBtu) text

Total consumption of electricity in kBtu (thousands of British thermal units).

Natural Gas (kBtu) text

Total consumption of natural gas in kBtu (thousands of British thermal units).

Steam (kBtu) text

Total consumption of district steam in kBtu (thousands of British thermal units). Steam is only used in the downtown office buildings and the Jail.

Total Energy (kBtu) text

The sum of all energy used in kBtu (thousands of British thermal units).

Total Energy Cost ($) text

Total cost for all energy consumed at the site.

Area (SqFt) text

The total floor area of the building. Sites such as streetlights, pumps, and air pollution monitors do not have a square footage. Also, some buildings in the County parks are missing square footage as the floor plans are in the process of being digitized.

Site EUI (kBtu/ft2) text

EUI is the total energy used by the building in one year divided by the building’s total square footage.

Source EUI (kBtu/ft2) text

The formula for source EUI weights different types of energy according to the total amount of raw fuel needed to operate a building, including transmission, delivery, and production losses. Electricity is multiplied by 3.14, natural gas by 1.05, and steam by 1.2 to arrive at the total source energy used. This figure is then divided by the building’s square footage.

Weather Normalized Site EUI (kBtu/ft2) text

The amount of energy the building would have consumed in one year under 30-average weather conditions (also called climate normals), divided by the total gross floor area of the building. This enables building performance comparison over time, despite unusual weather events. Site EUI is multiplied by a conversion factor typically ranging from .98 to 1.02 to arrive at this number.

Weather Normalized Source EUI (kBtu/ft2) text

The amount of raw fuel the building would have consumed in one year under 30-average weather conditions (also called climate normals), divided by the total gross floor area of the building. This enables building performance comparison over time, despite unusual weather events. Source EUI is multiplied by a conversion factor typically ranging from .98 to 1.02 to arrive at this number.

Water (kGal) text

Total water by thousands of gallons.

Sewer (kGal) text

Total sewer by thousands of gallons.

Water Cost ($) text

Total water cost.

Sewer Cost ($) text

Total sewer cost.

Address Line 1 text

Street address of the site. Some sites such as street lights do not have a precise address.

City text

Municipality of the site.

State text

State of the site.

Zip Code text

Zip Code of the site.

Zip Code +4 text

The 4-digit extension to the Zip Code.

Department text

The County department that operates at or is responsible for the site. Sites that house several departments, such as the County Office Building, are coded as “Multiple”.

Division/Department detail text

The department division, County park or Public Works district operating at or responsible for the site.
