New York City launched local law 97 in 2019 to reduce carbon emissions from buildings as part of the Climate Mobilization Act. This nyc local law 97 sets carbon ceilings on buildings that occupy an area of over 25,000 square feet. These caps begin in 2024 and will become stricter over time, eventually reducing emissions by 80 percent by 2050. This NYC local law 97 law is the most aspiring building emissions law enforced by any city globally.
Initial Energy Evaluation::
IAG Energy will give you a detailed report of emissions for each of your buildings. This concept will clearly show where your building currently stands in terms of carbon emissions in 2024-2029 and then 2030-2034. If the building is under its allotment, no further steps are required, and we will inspect the building over the next few years to ensure allotted emissions. However, if the building exceeds the emission level, the local law 97 NYC report will specify the exact amount of fines to be levied on the building from 2024 to 2029.
Retro-commissioning Energy Audits and Operation plans are recommended for buildings that are currently exceeding their carbon limit.
