We’re ringing in the new year with real decarbonization progress! Since 2006, city government has cut greenhouse gas emissions by 31% and reduced energy use by 16%, all without sacrificing essential public services. With 17,500+ energy upgrades across 2,500 municipal facilities, we are meeting our climate commitments, and are on pace to exceed our 2030 targets while leading the nation in sustainable government.

Sprinklers are built to control or slow a fire early, which helps reduce heat and smoke, protect escape routes, and make it safer for everyone to evacuate. Learn more about how sprinklers work to control fires.

Mayor Adams and Commissioner Molina are celebrating DCAS major milestones reached over the past four years, with the department achieving major progress across sustainability, workforce development, street safety, and affordability initiatives. These gains have only bolstered the City of New York’s vision of building a cleaner, safer, fairer, and more affordable city for New Yorkers and those who serve it.

DCAS and MOCS announced the release of a new challenge-based procurement solicitation to identify innovative solutions that will reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improve energy performance in city-owned buildings. This new method allows the city to issue a challenge statement that defines a complex problem rather than prescribing a solution.
