Our Services

Local Law Compliance

NYC's building energy laws are now in active annual enforcement. We manage the full compliance calendar: Local Law 97 emissions reporting and penalty mitigation, LL84 benchmarking, LL87 audits, LL88 upgrades, and LL33/95 grades with PE-certified filings through the DOB BEAM Portal and violation response when things go wrong.

Who We Are

For over 16 years, The Cotocon Group has helped New York City buildings meet every generation of the city's energy laws from the first LL84 benchmarking cycles to today's Local Law 97 carbon caps. We are engineers first: filings are prepared and certified by our in-house Professional Engineers and Registered Architects, not subcontracted, which is why property managers and boards trust us with compliance that carries six-figure penalty exposure.

Our work spans the full lifecycle: confirming coverage, reconciling utility data, certifying annual reports, contesting violations, and managing the audits, retro-commissioning, and electrification projects that keep buildings under their tightening caps through 2030 and beyond. See how we brought 555 Madison Avenue, a 500,000+ sq ft Plaza District tower, under its LL97 limit.

Headquartered in New York City and a licensed General Contractor in Florida, we serve building owners, co-op and condo boards, and property management firms across every borough.
