Logical Buildings has been recognized by Con Edison with the 2025 Best Growth Award as part of the Smart Usage Partner Awards.

The Smart Usage Partner Awards celebrate aggregators that help expand program participation, deliver reliable performance during peak events, and contribute meaningful impact to grid stability.

In 2025, Demand Response reductions accounted for approximately 6% of total peak usage in the Con Edison service territory. These reductions represent a growing Virtual Power Plant (VPP) resource — electricity users reducing load during peak hours to help balance supply and demand across New York.

The Best Growth Award reflects significant year-over-year expansion in enrolled capacity and participation. More importantly, it represents consistent operational performance and dependable delivery of pledged load relief when the grid needs it most.

Growth with Purpose

What makes this growth especially meaningful is how it was achieved.

Logical Buildings continues to make participation in the emerging electron economy simple and friction-free through technology innovations like GridRewards, enabling customers to earn revenue while strengthening grid reliability and addressing electricity affordability.

A key driver of this growth has been the engagement of smaller energy users — unlocking collective impact at scale. Logical Buildings works closely with multifamily owner-operators, municipalities, and partners like Sustainable Westchester to expand access to Demand Response participation.

Shared Success

This award is a reflection of the building owners, multifamily operators, municipalities, and community partners who actively participate in Demand Response and deliver real load reductions during critical peak events.

Their operational commitment and trust make consistent performance possible. By showing up year after year and reducing load when it matters most, these partners are not only earning revenue — they are helping strengthen grid reliability, reduce strain on peak infrastructure, and support a more affordable energy system for New Yorkers.

Logical Buildings is proud to work alongside partners like Sustainable Westchester and forward-thinking owner-operators who understand that distributed energy participation is no longer optional — it is foundational to the future of the grid.

Together, these efforts are helping build a stronger, more affordable, and more resilient energy system for New York.
