Carbon Emissions-Focused Digital Platforms

The Cotocon Group, a consultancy specializing in New York City's building energy regulations, has introduced a new digital platform named The Carbon Shield. This service is designed to assist property owners in navigating the complexities of Local Law 97 and related statutes, which impose strict limits on carbon emissions from buildings and levy significant financial penalties for non-compliance.

The Carbon Shield platform functions as a centralized dashboard that offers continuous monitoring of a building's energy consumption and emissions data. It tracks this information in conjunction with legal thresholds and provides alerts for any violations or impending reporting deadlines.

The company emphasizes that the tool is intended to replace reactive panic with proactive management. A basic version providing a compliance overview is available without charge, while a monthly subscription unlocks full-service features.
