Executive Summary Background This third annual report details the energy performance of 471 of San Francisco’s municipal facilities during calendar year 2013, including almost 49 million square feet of building area. In 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 nonresidential 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.
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, over 80% outperformed the national median for similar buildings. Only 4 out of 135 rating-eligible facilities ranked in the bottom 25% compared to their national peers. 55 K-12 schools and twelve other City facilities performed in the top 25% nationwide (the threshold for the ENERGY STAR label) in 2013. Comparison to Prior Years: The improving energy use trend noted in the 2011 and 2012 reports continued this year. The overall EUI of benchmarked facilities1 improved 2.8% from 2012 and 7.4% compared to 2009. The average 2013 carbon footprint of benchmarked facilities improved 6.0% from 2012 and 12.7% compared to 2009.2 Although numerous factors may influence this trend, estimated savings from energy efficiency projects completed between 2009 and 20133 equal approximately 2/3 of the EUI reduction illustrated in Figure 1.
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 and (new for this report) ten City College of San Francisco facilities.

Making Use of the Results The findings suggest that San Francisco’s municipal buildings performed well in 2013. However, the results in this report are just a first step. The wide variation in energy performance within most facility types suggests there are many opportunities for improvement. This Energy Benchmarking Report forms one part of efforts by the SFPUC and other departments to track and improve the energy efficiency of municipal buildings. This annual report is one of the tools guiding the SFPUC Power Enterprise’s ongoing energy efficiency program. The Power Enterprise 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 can 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. Please email any questions or suggestions to:

Calendar Year 2013 Highlights: Benchmarking results are provided for 471 municipal facilities across 30 facility types, including the addition of City College of San Francisco buildings. For each facility type, buildings are ranked in order of Energy Use Intensity (EUI, or energy use per square foot). The overall EUI of municipal buildings has improved 7.4% over the past four years, and the average carbon footprint has decreased 12.7% over the same period. Over 80% of San Francisco facilities in ENERGY STAR building types performed equal to or better than the national average. Of facilities in ENERGY STAR building types, only four locations ranked in the bottom 25% compared to the national average.

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. 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 nonresidential 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 San Francisco is taking in support of those commitments is to reduce the energy consumption of public buildings. San Francisco’s public buildings obtain their electricity from the City’s GHG-free Hetch Hetchy Power system, and stewardship of this public resource demands that the City make the most efficient use of energy. These buildings also consume natural gas and steam, contributing 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 and agencies 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. Photo: Solar panels lowered onto Davies Symphony Hall (November 2013) Energy use at Davies Symphony Hall has decreased 7% since 2009, when the SFPUC undertook retrofits of the building’s lighting and HVAC systems. In addition, the SFPUC recently completed a 139 kW solar installation that will produce approximately 10% of the electricity needed at Davies and the adjacent Zellerbach Rehearsal Hall.

San Francisco’s Approach to Benchmarking
peers. Eligible buildings can receive a 1-100 score (with 50 being the median and 100 the best) that compares a structure’s energy performance to similar buildings nationwide.
In 2011, San Francisco joined a growing number of cities that had 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.
Although some facility types in this report are eligible for a 1-100 rating (see Figure 2), the bulk of the City’s municipal buildings—the libraries, fire stations, museums, recreation centers, etc.—are benchmarked on the basis of on-site Energy Use Intensity (EUI), 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 third annual report builds upon the previous two years’ efforts, while continuing to expand the number of benchmarked municipal buildings. Over the past three years, SFPUC staff has worked with representatives of 26 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 a widely accepted way for owners and occupants of eligible facilities to see how their buildings stack up against local and national
Another decision is 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.4 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 sitesource 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 one tool to identify energy efficiency opportunities, there are other efforts to track and 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 its electricity customers 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 SFPUC’s hope that the format of this report is 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 methods 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.

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.
Energy Use in San Francisco’s Municipal Buildings Information Sources and Assumptions
Departments also supplied the SFPUC with the size of parking garages and parking lots. Where attached parking would affect the ENERGY STAR rating of a facility, this data was entered into Portfolio Manager as an additional space type. The EUI calculations in this report include parking garage area as part of a facility’s square footage, which in most cases decreases the reported EUI of a building due to the lower energy intensity of a typical parking garage. However, the area of parking lots is not included in the EUI calculations.
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 other sources, 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 12 facilities where some energy use data is missing (see page 32).5 Facility data: Accurate facility data is needed 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. Similar verification occurred for facilities added to the 2012 and 2013 reports, and departments were also asked to provide any updates for locations 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 energy meters are shared by multiple buildings. 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 one facility but is a campus of more than 15 individual buildings. Similarly, Moscone Center North and South are considered a campus with shared mechanical systems, as are the War Memorial Veterans Building and Opera House. Excluded are any amounts of fuel oil that may be burned in several dual-fuel boilers, to ensure readiness in case of a natural gas curtailment event.

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 estimate the EUI of these buildings, the unmetered portion of Civic Center steam use was apportioned to the 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.
Snapshot of Energy Use Intensity In calendar year 2013, the overall Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of the 470 benchmarked facilities (excluding the Airport)6 was 73.12 kBtu of on-site energy per square foot of building area.7 This was an improvement of 2.8% from the 2012 EUI of 75.268 and an improvement of7.4% since 2009.
6
The overall EUI comparisons provided in the report exclude the Airport, due to its large size and lack of building-level meter detail. Additionally, some Airport natural gas data prior to 2011 is not available to the SFPUC. 7 The site EUI figures in this report are not weather normalized to account for year-to-year fluctuations in the number of heating and cooling degree days. The ENERGY STAR ratings, where available, are weather normalized. 8 The 2012 EUI figure differs somewhat from the number cited in the 2012 report, since the number of buildings included in this report has increased. 10
Figure 3: Energy Use in Municipal Facilities, Calendar Year 2013 The buildings benchmarked in this report represent almost 74% of the electricity, natural gas, and district steam used in San Francisco’s municipal facilities in calendar year 2013. Shown in dark green, these 471 facilities (including San Francisco International Airport) used a total of 3,948,816 MMBtu of on-site 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. 21% of the on-site energy used in municipal facilities is excluded from this report, as indicated. [Note that the figure for the Port is a partial total that excludes natural gas.]

Comparing the two charts above (Figure 4), some building types consume energy out of proportion to their size. For instance, the two hospitals comprise only 4.3% of the benchmarked square footage, but consumed 17.1% of benchmarked energy in 2013 (EUI of 322.5). This is largely due to the hospitals’ operating hours and intensity of use, as well as ongoing construction at SF General Hospital. On the other hand, parking garages (which are unheated) make up 10.8% of benchmarked square footage but used only 1.1% of the year’s benchmarked energy use (EUI of only 8.1). Museums have a higher than average EUI (likely due to 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

Conversion factors are those referenced by EPA’s ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager: (3.412 kBtu per kWh of electricity; 100 kBtu per therm of natural gas; 1.194 kBtu per lb of district steam). 1 MMBtu = 1,000 kBtu = 1,000,000 Btu. 10 GHG emissions from SFPUC electricity are zero for 2013. Natural gas emissions use national averages cited by ENERGY STAR (11.7 lbs CO2 per therm of natural gas). Steam emissions provided by NRG (0.199 lbs CO2 per pound of steam).
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. 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 have verified the data and provided corrections and missing information. Data verified includes 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 the report, and an effort will be made to obtain the missing data in future years.

perfect—it is not adjusted to account for fluctuations in weather or changes in occupancy or operations—but does provide informative results. In cases where the SFPUC was aware that a facility was vacant or under construction for an extended period of time during 2012 or 2013, a note (4) is included after the facility name.
2013 Energy Benchmarking Results Energy Use Intensity (EUI) for all Facilities 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 17-32 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 at the most energy intense locations. However, each department should look in more detail at the list of its buildings to help interpret the results. For example, some facilities have energy meter arrangements that do not 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.
San Francisco Facilities in ENERGY STAR Categories: Comparison to National Median Rating General Office
Top 25% (75-100 rating) 2nd Quarter (50-74 rating) 3rd Quarter (25-49 rating) Bottom 25% (0-24 rating) TOTAL
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 471 municipal facilities benchmarked in this report, 135 of them do have building characteristics and available data that make them eligible for an ENERGY STAR 1-100 rating. For these buildings, the SFPUC used the EPA’s Portfolio Manager system to generate 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
To help track changes in energy use over time, a comparison to calendar year 2012 EUI is included for each site. This comparison is also not Figure 6:

Several other locations are qualifying building types but the SFPUC did not have adequate data to generate an accurate rating. As shown in Figure 6, almost half of rating-eligible facilities (67 out of 135) achieved a preliminary score in the top 25% of similar buildings nationwide, and therefore appear qualified to receive the ENERGY STAR label for calendar year 2013.11 84% of rating-eligible San Francisco facilities performed equal to or better than the national median for similar buildings. Only four facilities rated in the bottom 25% compared to similar buildings nationwide. Individual ratings for these facilities can be seen in the charts on the following pages, grouped by facility type. The top 12 (non-school12) facilities are listed individually in Figure 7.
Carbon Footprint The GHG emissions of each facility (on a per square foot basis) is provided to help integrate this benchmarking report with the City’s annual Climate Action Plan reporting. The average 2013 carbon footprint of the benchmarked facilities (4.96 pounds of CO2 emissions per square foot) improved 6.0% from 2012 and 12.7% compared to 2009. One key difference between the buildings in this report and their national counterparts is that electricity in San Francisco 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
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 (see page 32). 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.

Ratings for calendar year 2013 were obtained in June 2014. 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. 12 Although preliminary ENERGY STAR ratings are provided for elementary and middle schools on the following pages, further site investigations are needed for the scores to 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. ENERGY STAR quartile results for high schools are included in the overall totals in this report, but the 1-100 scores for individual high schools are not listed due to unexpectedly positive scores. A more detailed assessment of the ENERGY STAR ratings for high schools in San Francisco’s climate may be warranted. 11

How to Interpret Data on the Following Pages
Each facility’s preliminary 2013 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 2013 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 2013. General category of building, corresponding to energy use snapshot in previous chapter Specific facility type, allowing a comparison of similar facilities to each other See Page 3 for a list of department acronyms.
Each facility’s estimated 2013 carbon footprint is shown here as pounds of CO2 emissions per square foot of building area. For electricity in 2013, 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).
For each general building category, the average 2013 EUI of San Francisco municipal facilities is provided here.

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 2013. The report is intended primarily to help inform building owners and other decision makers about where to target public resources. It also provides information to energy efficiency researchers and the general public. As described below, energy benchmarking should be seen as part of a wider array of energy efficiency strategies to reduce the City’s energy use and improve the operations 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 or the have unexpected results. For instance, a poorly functioning HVAC system can result in large amounts of wasted energy and cause an unexpectedly poor rating. On the other hand, a facility with a history of comfort problems may appear on paper as an energy efficient building because the HVAC systems are not functioning. Additionally, while the SFPUC made every effort to accurately match meters to facilities and also to indicate where a facility was vacant for a 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 third year that this Energy Benchmarking Report has been issued for San Francisco’s municipal buildings. The content of each year’s report has been improved 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. 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 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. This Energy Benchmarking Report is one tool used by the SFPUC to target facilities for energy efficiency improvements. The SFPUC also offers a green building commissioning program to City departments, which can assist with new building projects and major renovations. In addition, retro-commissioning of existing buildings can 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. Readers are encouraged to suggest improvements to the format of the report for future years. The findings of this report suggest that San Francisco’s public buildings performed well in 2013, contributing toward the City’s goals of reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. The SFPUC hopes that City departments and others will find this data useful in better understanding the energy use of municipal facilities, and that this knowledge will encourage further actions to improve that performance.

Adjacent facilities combined for benchmarking, due to shared mechanical systems. Bill Graham Civic Auditorium and DPH Central Office receive steam from the Civic Center steam loop that is unmetered at individual facility level. For purposes of this report, the metered use at the steam loop is apportioned based on each building’s square footage, but may be over reported here due to leaks and other losses in the steam loop itself. A steam meter was installed at City Hall at the beginning of 2012. 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 2012 or 2013. The metering arrangement at the SECF needs further investigation. Electricity and natural gas use data for the nursery and greenhouses may be incomplete. 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 building are not applicable. Not qualified for ENERGY STAR rating, due to lack of full-time occupants. High schools that appear to be eligible for the ENERGY STAR rating are indicated with green dots, and ENERGY STAR quartile results for high schools are included in the overall totals shown on page 14 of this report. However, the 1-100 scores for individual high schools are not listed due to unexpectedly positive scores. More detailed site surveys, as well as a more detailed assessment of the ENERGY STAR ratings for high schools in San Francisco’s climate may be warranted. 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. Irregular natural gas use. Some or all natural gas use data is unknown, missing, or gas meter readings may be inaccurate. Irregular electricity use. Some or all electricity use data is unknown, missing, or electrical meter readings may be inaccurate. A significant portion of the Airport is in operation 24 hours per day.

Photos: San Francisco Animal Shelter (Owner: Animal Care and Control) Originally built 1931, Remodeled 1989. Due to its constant operation and mix of uses (including kennels, medical facilities, administrative offices, adoption areas, warehouse, and garage), the Animal Shelter has a high energy intensity and was a good candidate for energy efficiency savings. In summer 2013, Animal Care and Control and the SFPUC completed a retrofit of the building’s HVAC systems. The project replaced the building’s existing space heating and domestic hot water boilers, air handling units, and energy management system. Pictured to the right is one of the existing space heating boilers, which was beyond its expected useful life, along with the replacement 88% efficient boiler. With the completion of these improvements, the Animal Shelter used 22% less energy in calendar year 2013 than the previous year, due to decreases in both natural gas and electricity use. The project’s estimated GHG reductions are equivalent to eliminating the GHG emissions from 49 average San Francisco homes. 36
