Local Law 97 emissions limit
At its 2024 energy use, the Theresa Towers comes to about 814 metric tons of CO2e a year under Local Law 97's coefficients, against a limit of 1,263 tons for 2024 to 2029 (64% of the limit), so it would owe no penalty. From 2030 the limit drops to 421 tons and the same energy use counts as about 575 tons, about 153 tons over, or an estimated $41,000 a year unless the building cuts its emissions.
