Making Local Law 97 Simple
Local Law 97, part of New York City’s Climate Mobilization Act, sets strict carbon emissions limits for most buildings over 25,000 square feet. Starting in 2024, owners must meet annual caps or face significant fines, with the rules becoming tougher through 2050. The law is complex, but that is where we come in. Our team breaks it down into clear, manageable steps. We help building owners cut through the red tape, minimize exposure to penalties, and implement smart, cost-effective strategies that make compliance with LL97 simple and achievable.
