But, since those RECs are not widely available yet, owners have been seeking the ability to comply with the law by purchasing Tier 2 RECs, which are derived from legacy renewable energy projects located elsewhere in the state.<\/p>\n<p>The governor had agreed to insert a provision in his draft budget that would have supplied owners with that Tier 2 relief. But the state legislature did not include the provision (formally known as Part R of the Transportation, Economic Development and Environmental Conservation) in its draft budget last month, and it did not make it into the final budget, either.<\/p>\n<p>Environmental groups and many in the energy efficiency business argued that the provision would have flooded the market with low-priced energy credits and defeated the purpose of the law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York City&#8217;s new building emissions law is the most ambitious law to be enacted by any city.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":756,"featured_media":1004528504,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23891,1600,21742,21786],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004520757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-national","category-new-york","category-latest","category-sustainability"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
