Core Features
Carbon Shield is purpose-built for NYC’s regulatory environment, giving non-technical teams a straightforward path from “Am I compliant?” to concrete next steps—backed by Cotocon’s long track record with thousands of buildings across the state. Carbon Shield enables users to:
Local-Law Compliance Tracking – Year-round tracking for LL97 (which has emissions reporting requirements) and other building regulations in New York. Owners can see where each property stands against current thresholds and timelines.
Violation & Deadline Alerts – Instant notifications for open DOB violations and approaching cut-offs, plus clear next steps to resolve issues before they become fines.
Carbon & Energy Monitoring – Portfolio-level view of emissions and utility use (electricity, gas, steam, oil, solar and more) to track progress against sustainability goals.
All-in-One Dashboard – A simple workflow—look up an address, claim your building, and access a tailored dashboard with recommendations, history, and status.
Reports & Filings – Generate a downloadable annual compliance report; premium subscribers can have LL97 filings handled by Cotocon.
Closing Insights
As New York’s decarbonization rules involve emissions limits, benchmarking, and inspections, Carbon Shield’s value lies in its provision of practical steps to property owners—from tracking LL97 exposure to applicable fines—all inside a single, owner-friendly interface. Early adopters of Cabon Shield include landmark buildings in New York like 123 Madison Avenue and 999 Place, helping them reduce utility costs and carbon emissions, and avoid fines.
Carbon Shield is built by a consultancy that has supported thousands of NYC buildings, translating lived experience into software conventions that non-technical users can navigate quickly. The free-to-start model, premium filings option, and explicit DOB-violation alerts indicate a practical roadmap that blends self-service visibility with expert support when owners need them most.
