Last month, the NYC Council enacted four new laws to establish a New York Energy Conservation Code. This will require certain building owners to conduct energy audits and retro-commissioning, benchmark energy and water efficiency, upgrade the lighting systems and install sub-meters to measure the flow of electricity with certain tenant spaces. This new City Energy Code will go into effect on July 1, 2010. Other laws take effect immediately.<\/p>\n
Local Law 564-A creates the City Energy Code. This is more stringent version of the 2007 Energy Conservation Construction Code of New York State.<\/p>\n
Local Law 967-A requires owners of covered buildings to submit an energy efficiency report every 10 years to DOB, beginning in 2013.<\/p>\n %<\/span><\/span> | %<\/span><\/a> | %<\/span><\/a> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last month, the NYC Council enacted four new laws to establish a New York Energy Conservation Code.
