Many building owners in NYC are facing challenges complying with LL97 regulations. NYC Local Law 97 (LL97) requires buildings to reduce their carbon footprint, improve energy efficiency and make other improvements. However, affording these changes can be difficult, especially for older buildings. Latitude Compliance is a team that can help you find financing solutions that make your properties LL97 compliant.

Common NYC Building Upgrades

Buildings emit carbon by consuming energy from various sources, such as fuel oil, electricity or natural gas. LL97 mandates reduced carbon emission levels for different types of buildings. One way to achieve this is by switching from fossil fuels to electricity for heat and hot water systems and finding ways to use more clean electric sources.

Upgrading to more efficient electrical systems, installing new windows, water-efficient appliances and fixtures, solar energy sources and improving insulation quality can all help reduce carbon emissions. However, since there is a shortage of materials and labor, the costs of materials and labor have been rising, and project timeframes have been getting longer.

How Can You Finance Your NYC LL97 Building Upgrades?
