Dear NYC Principals and Administrators,
If you have not yet submitted your energy and water consumption to the city for the 2020 calendar year, the final deadline to do so is February 1, 2022.
The NYC Benchmarking Law requires owners of buildings that meet the criteria outlined in the law to annually measure their energy and water consumption through a process called benchmarking.
There are specific criteria for which buildings need to submit this information. You can check if this law applies to your school by searching for your school’s 10 digit BBL (Borough, Block and Lot number) on this list.
Please read through the city’s webpage here for detailed information on the Benchmarking Law.
Failure to submit the report by the deadline can result in a penalty of up to $2,000.
If you have any questions, you can reach out to the NYC Sustainability Help Center at [email protected] or (212) 566-5584.
As always, feel free to reach out to [email protected] with any questions.
