This webinar explored New York City’s Local Law 97 (LL97), which requires most buildings over 25,000 square feet to meet carbon emissions limits. The law targets a 40% emissions reduction by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050.
Speakers from the NYC Department of Buildings shared key guidance and lessons learned to help building owners navigate compliance while improving building performance. The session also featured two NYC building case studies, highlighting retrofit strategies and practical pathways to achieving LL97 compliance.
