In this article, we discuss NYSERDA’s new Heat Recovery Project Development and show how NYC commercial and multifamily buildings may benefit from it.
Local Law 97: The Growing Role of Energy Modeling
A properly calibrated energy model can offer a building insight into projected penalties (if any) and can enable valuable sensitivity analysis as well.
Local Law 97: What Building Owners Need to Consider
In this article, we look at three ways in which the CMA and LL97 may impact the industry moving forward:
Local Law 97: Is Your Building Ready?
Local Law 97 (LL97) is designed to encourage a 40% reduction in the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from energy use in buildings by 2030, and ultimately to achieve an 80% reduction in citywide emissions by 2050.
NYSERDA’s Commercial Tenant Program: Energy Modeling for Commercial Tenant Space
Energy modeling for LEED v4 Interiors; energy savings for commercial tenants; and updated guidance on the NYSERDA Commercial Tenant Program.
How to get 50% off on energy modeling of tenant space.
The NYSERDA Commercial Tenant Program provides cost-share incentives for both: tenants building-out a leased space; and for owners or managers looking to develop a generic package of energy savings applicable to standard tenant spaces in a building.
Tenant Energy Modeling: is it right for your project?
Under this new program, tenant build-out projects get an incentive that pays 50% of the cost of energy modeling. Great news for tenants, but not all projects will find energy modeling worthwhile. So, how can you tell if this will be a good idea for your project?

In this part, we offer our take on whether and how energy modeling can be applied to tenant build-out projects.
The lowdown on how tenants can benefit from NYSERDA's new Commercial Tenant Program.
NYSERDA recently launched a new $5.75 million incentive program for Tenants in New York. The Commercial Tenant Program will pay 50% of the cost of energy modeling, to cut energy costs in Tenant space.First up: why do energy modeling for a build-out of tenant space in the first place?
Three ideas from RDA to cut energy costs in tenant office space by between 5% and 15%.
In a new office, equipment energy use can account for over 70% of a tenant’s electricity use. We would not be surprised to find office tenants who match the New York Times’ findings; using a quarter of their energy while no one is there.
