When reviewing an GUID-2043E09F-40E5-4155-AE28-134F62E54F54.htm#WS73099CC142F487552C60378B128B24194AD655E in the Results and Compare dialog, this table provides information about energy use per unit floor area. Because Energy Use Intensity (EUI) is a per-area metric, it is a convenient method of comparing project energy consumption when analyzed buildings have different sizes.

Parameter Description
Electricity EUI A measure of the annual electricity usage per floor area.
Fuel EUI A measure of the annual fuel usage per floor area.
Total EUI A measure of the combined electricity and fuel used by the project, per floor area per year.

For this metric, the electricity usage is converted as follows:

  • IP units: 1 kWh = 3.412 kBtu
  • SI units: 1kWh = 3.6 MJ
