New York City’s Climate Mobilization Act (the “Act”), which most notably includes Local Law 97 of 2019 (“LL97”), is at the forefront of the many climate laws sweeping the nation. LL97 sets specific carbon emissions limits (based on property type classification in the Energy Star Portfolio Manager) for energy usage in NYC’s largest buildings as part of the City’s goal of developing a sustainable, energy-efficient and electric building stock.

On a broader scale, NYC also recently unveiled its PlaNYC: Getting Sustainability Done (the “Plan”), which bolsters the Act through a long-term strategic climate plan.
