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.

Don’t Stall Our Advanced Manufacturing Momentum Randy Wolken, President & CEO...

Don’t Stall Our Advanced Manufacturing Momentum Randy Wolken, President & CEO New York stands at the edge of a historic opportunity. From semiconductor, biologics, defense, and advanced materials investments to supply chain reshoring, the state is experiencing a once-in-a-generation wave of advanced manufacturing growth. Regions like Central New York are no longer competing for marginal gains; they’re competing on a global stage for transformative, long-term investment. But moments like this are fragile. Policy decisions made today will determine whether New York accelerates into this future or quietly loses ground to more competitive states. A recent proposal within the FY 2027 Budget threatens to do just that. At issue is a technical-sounding change: “decoupling” New York tax policy from recent federal...

My Story: The Latest Chapter Steve Maloney  One last chapter to share — this will be the final post in the series of My Story. I hope this series has helped you get to know me better and given you a clearer understanding of who I am and what drives me.

Manufacturers Need Electric Power Dependability Randy Wolken, President & CEO New...

Manufacturers Need Electric Power Dependability Randy Wolken, President & CEO New York’s electric grid is sending a clear signal to advanced manufacturers and the public: the margin for error is shrinking, and the cost of inaction is rising. The recent warning from the New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) is more than a seasonal reliability update; it’s a strategic inflection point for the state’s industrial future. Entering the summer, New York’s grid will operate with a reserve margin of just 417 megawatts, one of the lowest in recent history. In practical terms, that margin represents the thin buffer between normal operations and system stress. For an advanced manufacturing economy that depends on precision, uptime, and energy-intensive processes, that buffer is...

Lessons From My Dad David Freund By now, many of you are aware that we laid my dad to rest earlier this month. Since his passing, I’ve spent time reflecting on the many lessons I learned from him throughout my life. I thought it might be meaningful to share some of those with you, my readers. This certainly isn’t an exhaustive list — in fact, it’s only a moment’s worth of reflection — but these are the lessons that came to mind first. So, let’s jump right in. 1. Don’t let others label you. My father taught me never to let others define who I am or what I can become. He believed that I determined my own potential. He...

My Story: Part Four Steve Maloney In part three of my story, I highlighted the importance of change — and my natural tendency to resist it, as shown in my DISC Assessment. My wife would agree with this. When it comes to changes around the house, my automatic response is, “What’s wrong with the way it is?” This is something I’ve had to work to overcome. This kind of mindset is especially important to overcome in manufacturing. A better response would be, “Why do we do it this way, and how can we improve our processes to make this better?” Fortunately, I learned not to let the “resistant to change” limitation on my DISC report affect how I led in...

Advanced Manufacturing Needs Infrastructure Investment Randy Wolken, President & CEO The U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s call for congressional action on infrastructure, reinforced by the National Governors Association’s (NGA) 2026 priorities, highlights a defining reality for the American economy: advanced manufacturing competitiveness now depends on a fully modernized, reliably funded, and strategically aligned infrastructure system across the federal and state levels. Infrastructure — roads, bridges, ports, rail, water systems, and energy networks — remains the “connective tissue” of the economy, enabling the movement of goods, people, and resources essential to production. The NGA perspective expands this view: infrastructure isn’t just physical assets; it’s the foundation of economic development, national security, and long-term opportunity. Modern industry requires not only transportation networks, but...
