This discussion brought together architects, engineers, and building professionals eager to stay informed about the evolving landscape of energy regulations and sustainability practices in New York State.
NEW YORK, March 11, 2025 -- Latitude, a leader in innovative building resilience and sustainability, proudly sponsored a pivotal event in collaboration with the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Westchester + Hudson Valley (WHV) focused on the latest energy code updates. Held on February 21, 2025, the event featured a special guest presentation by Michael Hernandez from Rewiring America, who provided invaluable insights into the latest energy code updates and particularly the upcoming legislation that are up for public comment, shaping the future of our industry. Attendees engaged in discussions about current updates in the energy code, the upcoming changes, and the importance of advocacy in the forthcoming council session a week later.
The event marked the launch of the chapter's COTE (Committee on the Environment) series, COTE-versations – a quarterly knowledge-sharing program for professionals to connect with industry leaders and engage in ongoing discussions on energy efficiency and sustainable building practices. This initiative equips professionals with the knowledge and tools to advocate for progressive energy legislation within their communities, clients, and projects. As energy codes continue to evolve in NYS, Latitude encourages built environment professionals to take an active role in shaping the future of sustainable design and regulations.
