The carbon reduction targets of Local Law 97 will require an unprecedented focus on deep energy efficiency retrofits across New York City buildings. Many building owners will be considering these types of projects for the first time.  Where should they start?  What types of retrofit measures should they consider and in what order?  What investments should they avoid, and how are all these considerations different for multifamily or commercial buildings?

Part of our highly popular Climate Mobilization Act Series, please join the Building Energy Exchange, the Natural Resources Defense Council and the NYC Mayor’s Office of Sustainability for this discussion as we pivot from the contents of the legislation to solutions that will meet the new targets.  With policy and technical expertise across the broad spectrum of NYC buildings, our panelists will describe the varying ways in which building owners, building managers, and their advisers can prepare for the targets set forth for 2024, 2030, and beyond.
