American Bank Note Company Printing Plant's 2024 Local Law 84 benchmarking filing got no ENERGY STAR score (a campus of several buildings cannot get a score), and Local Law 33 letter grades come from that score, so the filing does not yield an A to D grade. Its site energy use came to 52.5 kBtu per square foot, about the same as the national median of 51.2 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 1,885 metric tons of CO2e (5.06 kg per square foot).

At its 2024 energy use, American Bank Note Company Printing Plant comes to about 1,470 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 2,780 tons for 2024 to 2029 (53% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 978 tons and the same energy use counts as about 893 tons, still under the limit. This is an estimate from the owner's 2024 benchmarking filing using the coefficients and per-use limits in the law and the Department of Buildings rule, at $268 per ton over. It is not the building's Local Law 97 report, which can count credits and deductions this estimate cannot.
