Energy
Site EUI - Maalka defines Site Energy Use Intensity as total energy-use consumed at a site from all renewable and non-renewable sources, divided by building size.
Site RPI - Maalka defines Renewable Production Intensity as total energy-use consumed at a site from all on-site renewable sources, divided by building size.
Gross Total Energy - The total energy from all renewable and non-renewable sources.
Total Renewable Energy - A general term that includes energy-use from on-site renewable sources.
Off-Site Generated Electricity - Any electricity generated outside of site boundaries, such as a coal plant.
On-Site Renewable Electricity - Any electricity generated within site boundaries, such as solar panels.
District Steam - Steam that is produced outside site boundaries and transferred into the site through pipes.
District Hot Water - Hot water that is produced outside site boundaries and is transferred into the site through pipes.
District Chilled Water - Chilled water that is produced outside site boundaries and is transferred into the site through pipes.
Fuel Oil #1 - A distillate oil intended for vaporizing pot-type burners. Former names include: coal oil, stove oil, and range oil.
Fuel Oil #2 - A distillate home heating oil, sometimes known as Bunker A.
Fuel Oil #4 - A commercial heating oil for burner installations not equipped with preheaters.
Fuel Oil #6 - A high-viscosity residual oil requiring preheating, which may be known as residual fuel oil (RFO).
Water
Site WUI - Maalka defines Water Use Intensity as all water (potable, well, reclaimed, other) consumed at the site (indoor, outdoor), divided by building size.
Site Potable WUI (Performance Targets Report) - Maalka defines Potable Water Use Intensity as all indoor potable water consumed at the site, divided by building size.
Total Water - The total water (all types) consumed on site (indoor and outdoor) from all sources.
Indoor Potable Water - Drinkable water used in a site's indoor plumbing.
Potable Water Mixed/Indoor- Drinkable water that is used both inside and outside
Irrigation Water - Water used for outdoor plant growth, conducted through various transportation systems.
Reclamation Water - Wastewater that has been treated and repurposed.
Emissions
EI - Maalka defines Emissions Intensity as CO2 emissions from all sources divided by building size.
Total Emissions - All CO2 emissions generated from building use and construction
Scope 1 Emissions - a.k.a. Direct Emissions are emissions associated with onsite fuel combustion (e.g. combustion of natural gas or fuel oil).
Scope 2 Emissions - a.k.a. Indirect Emissions are emissions that occur outside your site boundaries, for the generation of electricity, district steam, district hot water, or district chilled water.
Waste
E-Waste - Waste that is collected from electronics equipment. Collected at the regional or global level only.
Construction Waste - Waste that is generated from site construction or renovations.
Business Waste - Waste that is generated from normal business operations, such as paper, batteries, compost.
