Climate justice focuses on addressing the inequalities of climate change and empowering communities to be part of the solutions. We want everyone to understand our transition to clean energy and support the communities we serve. To make a tangible impact, we are awarding $4 million in grants to local organizations that are building climate resilience in underserved communities across NYC and Westchester.

Powering NYC, Westchester, and leading the clean energy transition.
About us
We provide power to more than 10 million people and businesses across NYC and Westchester. Reliability and accessibility are central to what we do and how we provide energy service. Leading the industry to power tomorrow is our other focus- we are committed to aggressively transitioning away from fossil fuels to a net-zero economy by 2050. To help achieve this we collaborate with customers, regulators, policymakers, engineers, and other stakeholders to ensure our clean energy future is informed by principles of affordability, equity, and environmental justice. We’re also heavily investing in new technologies and the infrastructure that can get us there. What are a few things we have achieved so far? • Since 2009, our energy efficiency programs have prevented 11 million metric tons of carbon emissions – the same amount it would take to power 1.4 million homes for a year • Recently, we’ve embarked on an 8-year project to make our systems more resilient in the face of extreme weather events

We care about our environment, wildlife, and community. In Staten Island, ospreys, protected birds known as sea hawks, often nest on utility poles near shorelines and wetlands. To protect them and ensure reliability, our team replaced feeders, relocated two nests, and built safe platforms for the ospreys to rebuild. Together, we’re preserving nature and keeping our community connected. Learn more: http://spr.ly/6043thph9

Shout-out to Con Edison, Romel Palis, Allan Drury for this amazing feature. Disability affects all of us and we are continuously doing the work to break the stigma around Disability in the Energy Industry.

NYC's Underground Steam System: A Key to a Greener Future Did you know that beneath the streets of Manhattan lies a 106-mile network of steam pipes, quietly powering some of the city's most iconic buildings? Con Edison operates this extensive system, delivering 370-degree vapor to landmarks like the Empire State Building, the United Nations, and Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. As New York City aims to reduce its carbon emissions, Amy Haag spoke with Bloomberg News reporter Tope Alake about how the steam system stands ready to help lead the way. #cleanenergy #renewableenergy #smartcities #sustainable #power #innovation with Anne Riley Moffat and Linda Poon
