Conforming the New York city energy conservation code to the New York state energy code with amendments unique to construction in the city.

Summary

This bill would implement section 28-1001.3 of the Administrative Code, which requires the New York City Department of Buildings to submit proposed updates to the City’s Energy Conservation Code (“NYCECC”) to bring it up to date with or exceed the latest edition of the Energy Conservation Construction Code of New York State (“ECCCNYS”). These amendments would bring the NYCECC up to date with the 2025 version of the ECCCNYS, which goes into effect on December 31, 2025, but with certain local amendments based on unique conditions within the City.
