Energy Consulting Services

We Monetize Your Energy Efficiency
while growing your NOI.

Over the years, LC Associates has delivered more than $150 million in cash incentives to building owners across New York City. Our results speak for themselves: we don’t get paid unless we bring you money, and we bring a lot of it.

Armed with 35 years of industry expertise, we know exactly how to squeeze every last dollar out of Con Edison’s incentive programs. We routinely sell verified energy savings at premium rates — $0.35/kWh, $5/therm, $10/gal of oil, and $80/Mlb of steam.

The best part?
Clients regularly walk away with three to four times the rebate value they expected.

If you’re upgrading HVAC, lighting, controls, boilers, or any major energy system, LC Associates ensures you capture all available funding. We turn your energy projects into a profit center.

Tenant Sub-Metering and Real Time Energy Management

Local Law 88 Submetering + Con Edison RTEM Funding

Why Pair Submetering With RTEM?

Because Con Edison will not pay for meters alone.

But when those same meters feed data into an RTEM platform, they become part of a building-wide monitoring and optimization strategy — and now Con Edison will fund:

RTEM data gateways

Metering network infrastructure

Dashboards, analytics, and alarms

Installation and commissioning labor

Ongoing monitoring and reporting support

LC Associates specializes in structuring projects so they meet Con Edison’s technical and financial requirements.
You get compliance + funding + real-time visibility all in one package.

Strategic Energy Purchasing

Never Buy and Forget - Active Blocking and Indexing
may save you up to 14%

Buying energy once a year and hoping for a good rate isn’t a strategy—it’s a gamble.

LC Associates applies a proven purchasing model built on blocking and indexing, allowing you to dollar-cost-average energy prices across the year. Instead of entering long-term contracts—where suppliers conveniently stop trying—we purchase in tighter 3–6 month blocks.

And this is where the magic happens:
When suppliers are holding excess energy, those short windows turn into high-value buying opportunities.

Our clients benefit from:

Smarter timing

Better pricing

Continuous competition between suppliers

And 12–14% year-over-year savings

Stop rolling the dice on a one-year contract.
Start buying strategically.

Local Law 84, 87, 88 and 97 Compliance

Protect your building. Protect your wallet.

NYC’s Local Laws carry some of the highest penalties in the country, and those fines are only increasing. LC Associates helps building owners stay ahead of LL84, LL87, LL88, and LL97 — not just by filing reports, but by securing outside funding to pay for the required improvements.

We design compliance paths that leverage NYSERDA and Con Edison incentive programs to offset the cost of retro-commissioning, submetering, controls upgrades, heat pumps, monitoring, and carbon reduction measures.

Over our 35-year history, we’ve generated millions of dollars in funding for our clients — money that forms the financial guardrails needed to protect buildings from LL97 fines and other compliance penalties.

Compliance shouldn’t drain capital.
With LC Associates, it becomes a supported, strategic process.
