Make Your Building Work for You

High rise building

The New York Energy $mart Multifamily Performance Program harnesses the latest in building science technology and applies it specifically to your building's design and daily operation. Using a partner network, made up of engineers, energy consultants, and other industry professionals, the Multifamily Performance Program uses a customized approach to address the specific energy and operational needs of your building.

In the Existing Buildings Component eligible buildings are required to benchmark their energy performance compared to a set of similar buildings. Depending on their relative rank, they are assigned a performance target to achieve. Implementation of an Energy Reduction Plan and confirmation of achievement of the target make the buildings eligible for NYSERDA incentives.

By participating in the Multifamily Performance Program you will:

  • Improve the value of your building
  • Provide tenants with a comfortable and affordable living environment
  • Save thousands on annual energy costs

Comments and questions should be directed to 1-877-NY-SMART or emailed to the Existing Buildings Pipeline Manager
