  In the continuing saga of rolling out NYC’s  Local Law 97 , 2024 represents a milestone for the law originally passed in 2019. This will be the first year that  fines will actually be assessed to building owners  who fail to make “good faith” efforts to comply with the law and its guidelines. The new law requires that all commercial buildings of 25,000 square feet or larger comply with stringent guidelines aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, with a goal of a 40% cut in emissions from commercial buildings by 2030 and an 80% reduction by 2050. The law will cover close to 50,000 buildings across the city, according to the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB).

In September of 2023, Mayor Adams introduced the rules and guidelines for compliance, called “Getting 97 Done.” The guidelines were tightened up in a revised rules package released last month as a resu...

Each building’s carbon budget/cap is based on their defined occupancy type (multifamily, retail, etc.), the corresponding square footage of each space and the limits for each occupancy type as defined in the law. Improvements are based on measurement baselines which were established for every affected building in 2022/23. Beginning May 1, 2025, every building will need to submit whole-building annual data from the previous calendar year. If a building goes over its emissions budget, a fine will be assessed on the property.  As part of current regulations, no later than May 1, 2025, a building owner must submit a decarbonization plan that is being im...
