UC Los Angeles Campus & Medical Center Strategic Energy Plan ...

of UCSD buildings is shown in Figure 4.2, grouped according to whether the building is
identified as Basic or Complex.
Note that there is a broad range in electricity use intensities. In addition, some of the Basic
buildings use more electricity per square foot than some of the Complex buildings. Although
there are significant differences from one building to another, the performance of some buildings
at a relatively low electricity use per square foot suggests a performance target for buildings on
the UCLA campuses. The San Diego climate, on average, requires more cooling than the Los
Angeles climate. Therefore, performance targets based on the UC San Diego building-level
data should represent a conservative estimate of the improvements that can be achieved in
buildings on the UCLA campus.
