This year marks our 10-year anniversary of our participation in the Demand Response program. Our energy consultants NuEnergen, LLC have been with us through every step of the way and this year we earned our largest check yet! For Javits Center’s Demand Response program participation in Summer 2024, we received over $1 million – demonstrating how sustainability can be beneficial for both the planet and the bottom line. The presentation was made by NuEnergen President & CEO Kevin Hamilton; President of Environmental and Energy Solution Keith Brodock; SVP, Client Services Brett Wu and Sales & Client Deliverables Manager Jordan Decker and received by our CEO, Alan Steel; our Sustainability Director, Yashi Dadhich and our SVP, Facilities Management, Kenneth Sanchez. Demand Response is an energy reduction program designed to reduce the risk of blackouts during periods of high demand on the power grid, such as during heat waves. Javits Center is one of the single largest contributors to electricity load reduction when there is a shortage of electricity supply. No other city in the United States has the same power constraints as NYC, which makes Javits Center’s Demand Response program a critical part of the city’s sustainable future.
