MultiLink is a green energy solution provider that can evaluate all of a building's energy use system and can analyze the most efficient way to improve energy conservation. MultiLink can offer a turnkey service that can develop a strategy to provide energy efficiency solutions for NYC Climate Mobilization Act such as energy letter grades and emission financial penalties.
NYC has passed the Climate Mobilization Act (CMA) that aims to reduce NYC's green gas emissions and fight against climate changes.
Stating in 2020, the energy letter grade will apply to buildings that are over 25,000 square feet in all five boroughs of NYC. The letter grade will be determined based on an annual energy benchmarking score and must be posted at all public entrances.
| Letter Grade | Benchmark Score |
|---|---|
| A | 85-100 |
| B | 70-84 |
| C | 55-69 |
| D | 1-54 |
| F | Failure to comply with benchmark |
Starting in 2024, buildings over 25,000 square feet in NYC will be mandated to meet specified carbon emission limits or pay penalties subject to the performance of an annual energy benchmarking. The penalty is $268 per metric ton that exceeds the carbon emissions limit.
Failure to file an annual LL97 report, which begins in 2025, will result in a fine of $0.50 per square foot monthly.

MultiLink can provide five important factors to reduce energy consumption and to improve energy conservation for buildings.
MultiLlink can identify the status of existing equipment based on an energy audit. Energy consumption can be substantially reduced through repairing or replacing aged and malfunctioning equipment.
Heat can be wasted through a variety of processes including ventilation, cooling, wastewater systems and others. Heat recovery solutions can identify rejected heat and find heat sinks that could reuse it.
Heat Recovery Solutions can reduce carbon footprint and energy consumption by reusing the heat that is used from fossil fuels. The heat recovery system can also help to reduce operating costs.
MultiLink can offer various renewable energy solutions and clean technologies including Solar Energy, CHP, Fuel Cells, Energy Storage System (ESS), Micro Grid, LED Lighting, Thermal Storage System, Voltages Reduction, Waste Heat Recovery Technologies, Air Purification, Heat Pump, VFD, DCV and others that could improve energy conservation.
MultiLink can help to determine which energy efficiency technologies and solutions can be feasible and will be cost effective for each building.
MuliLink provides IOT solutions such as RTEM (Real Time Energy Management), EMS (Energy Management System), BMS (Building Management System), Room Control System and others to optimize energy efficiency in buildings.
These technologies can significantly reduce energy usage as well as improve equipment operational performance with their ability to monitor, identify and control any systems or applications in buildings.
These systems can also prevent overheating and overcooling issues and recognize such problems quickly so that they can create further energy efficiency in buildings.
A building's envelope is the physical barrier that separates the inside of building from outside. It is made up of exterior walls, roofs, window walls, windows and other components. An inefficient envelope allows too much heat to transfer between the inside and outside of a building. The tighter the envelope is a key factor in increasing the energy efficiency of a building.
The implementation for NYC Climate Mobilization Act projects may require substantial capital investments. That is why it is so important to have other options besides Self-Financing.
MultiLink can provide various financial options such as Loan, Lease, PPA (Power Purchase Agreement), ESA (Energy Service Agreement), CTP (Commercial Tenant Program) and PACE (Property Accessed Clean Energy) if necessary.
