April 27, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Carleton Energy Consulting (CEC), professional energy consulting services, specializes in Local Law 84 (LL84) benchmarking compliance, energy auditing, consulting, solutions, procurement and boiler management.

“In New York City, building owners with lots of 50,000 square feet or more are required to comply with Local Law 84. Reporting is mandatory before May 1st,” says Jeff Carleton, President of Carleton Energy Consulting. For property owners who are wondering what needs to be done, here is a checklist to get them started. To comply with the May 1 deadline, owners must do the following:

Report Water and Energy Use Data – Using the free online benching tool (Energy Star Portfolio Manager), report water and energy use from the prior year. Usage data must be logged for January through December of the previous year into the Portfolio Manager. Use the template provided: NYC LL84 Benchmarking 2014 Compliance Report. The template will help create a customized compliance report for each property that can be submitted to the city. Remember to use the correct template for the correct year as they are updated annually.

If the May 1 Deadline is Missed – If owners fail to gather reporting data in time and miss the May 1 deadline, they may still be able to comply as long as they submit their reports before the next quarterly deadlines of August 1, November 1 and February 1. However, violations will be issued for owners who fail to comply by May 1 and a penalty of $500 will be assessed. Additional violations and penalties of $500 per quarter will be assessed if they miss the extended deadlines of August, November and February. Fines cannot exceed $2,000 per year.
