Products

Products and solutions to meet your energy needs.

Understand your facility usage and utility bills.

Analytics platforms such as Utility Bill Management can help you manage carbon emissions data associated with your utilities, including energy, water, sewer, and diesel. Use it to generate valuable insights, such as baseline energy usage data and how energy efficiency upgrades and other options can reduce emissions.

Make energy efficiency upgrades

Energy efficiency upgrades, such as LED lighting and HVAC upgrades, can help reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. With Constellation’s Efficiency Made Easy® (EME) program, you can implement those infrastructure improvements with no upfront capital.

Purchase EFECS and RECS

Emission-Free Energy Certificates (EFECs) represent the emission-free attributes of generating sources that do not emit greenhouse gases, such as solar, wind, nuclear and hydropower. At today’s prices, these are the most cost-effective certificates available. Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) represent the emission-free attributes of one megawatt hour (MWh) of electricity generated only by renewable power plants, such as from wind or solar power.

Explore renewable natural gas

Directly reduce greenhouse gas emissions resulting from natural gas consumption by matching your gas purchases with environmental attributes of renewable natural gas (RNG), derived from sources including landfills, wastewater treatment plants and commercial & agricultural waste digesters.

Leverage carbon offsets

Indirectly reduce such emissions through the purchase of carbon offsets, which represent a verified reduction in emissions of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gas emissions made elsewhere through forestry, energy efficiency, industrial process improvements and carbon capture & sequestration projects.

Procure offsite renewables

Through Constellation Offsite Renewables solutions, you have the ability to go beyond purchasing certificates and integrate energy from specific renewable energy projects in your region. Purchase renewable energy from existing (CORe) or new-build (CORe+) generation, including solar and wind facilities, into load-following energy supply.

Pursue Hourly Carbon-Free Energy Matching of clean electricity with your load

By matching your electricity use with a local emission-free energy source in real time, you can go beyond other net-zero programs to allow you to eliminate the carbon impact of your operations and fully achieve zero emissions goals.

The Future of Manufacturing in New York Randy Wolken, President &...

The Future of Manufacturing in New York Randy Wolken, President & CEO I’m often asked to assess the future of manufacturing in the upstate region and New York State as a whole. For decades, I was compelled to give a nuanced answer because of the challenges and opportunities manufacturers face here. Now, I can say that manufacturing is poised for significant growth in New York State. Our expansion here will also contribute to meaningful growth in manufacturing for the entire country. What’s different now? The pandemic and the nation’s recovery has changed our view of the manufacturing world. Our country now knows we must make critical products here in the United States. Disruptions in extended supply chains during the pandemic...

Retreat To Advance Randy Wolken, President & CEO I am convinced...

Retreat To Advance Randy Wolken, President & CEO I am convinced we need to retreat to advance, stop to start, and slow down to speed up. It’s the great paradox of our age. When things are going fast and continue to get faster, our natural tendency is to speed up. We must keep up—or catch up, but constantly going at a rapid pace can take its toll. I’ve seen so many people burn out in this go-go economy. What’s the solution? Learn to slow down, stop, and give yourself the break you need.  The holidays are a great time to reflect on the past year. It’s a natural break from what we’re doing, and family and friends can remind us...

MACNY, The Manufacturers Association has been awarded $6.5 million in funding from the Empire State Development Office of Strategic Workforce Development to scale its successful Direct Entry Pre-Apprenticeship programs. As announced by Governor Kathy Hochul last week, this funding is part of over $15.5 million earmarked to support workforce initiatives across New York State. This funding marks a pivotal moment for MACNY as it expands its Real Life Rosies® and Advance 2 Apprenticeship™ programs across New York State. These programs, which were launched in 2023 in the Mohawk Valley, have already proven successful in introducing underrepresented communities, including women and people with disabilities, to careers in advanced manufacturing. To date, the Real Life Rosies program has successfully introduced more than...

The Beautiful Journey of Failure David Freund, Chief Leadership Officer This past week, on a drive from Utica to Syracuse, I listened to the Corporate Competitor Podcast, and the host, Don Yeager was interviewing Uri Levine, the founder of WAZE. During the podcast, Uri mentioned that creating a start-up is a “journey of failures.” As I drove, my mind kept returning to that statement. I think most people would consider a journey of failures to be a very pitiful life, and yet, all I could think was, “a beautiful journey of failures.” Michael Jordon is perhaps the greatest basketball player of all time and yet Michael missed 12,345 shots and made 12,192; 28 of which were game-winning shots. Michael missed...

Great Leaders Needed Now! Randy Wolken, President & CEO More than ever, we need great leaders now! Leaders can be everywhere and anywhere. That is the true nature of leadership, it exists everywhere we turn. However, its quality can be vastly different depending on the situation. We naturally think of leaders in teams, organizations, companies, political entities, nonprofits, and governments. However, we also see leadership demonstrated in our families, friend groups, and informal service efforts to others. Leaders can be everywhere, but the real question is, are these leaders leading in ways that genuinely make a difference? In many ways today, we are disappointed by those who lead us. We all know when bad leadership is demonstrated. Its impact can be widespread and destructive. What we need...

Re-Energize Randy Wolken, President & CEO As leaders, we are expected to always be “on.” This is a challenging task to accomplish and yet, we know we owe it to our teams and organizations to be at our best. Given the stresses and challenges that accompany any leadership role, we must create a rhythm that allows us to continue to excel. How do we do that? I learned that a leader needs to plan and execute times to re-energize. The holidays can be that time of year when we commit to this vital discipline. We must be as committed to rest and recovery as we are to execution and outcomes. If not, we will burn out – and it will show in our performance...

The Power of Gratitude David Freund, Chief Leadership Officer Have we lost the ability to be grateful? Have we as a nation lost perspective? Have we forgotten how truly blessed we are? In 2016, I shared the following story from my mom and maternal grandmother. My mom and her parents fled Europe as the winds of war began to blow in the late 1930s. As a seven-year-old, she recalls going to the butcher shop near their home and asking the butcher for a nickel’s worth of bologna, sliced thin. She also shared that dinner was often one piece of meat cooked in fat. The meat was for my grandfather, and my mom, aunt, and grandmother would dip a slice of...
