Commercial Energy Management in Los Angeles, CA
Los Angeles is served by LADWP, a municipal utility — there is no Direct Access here, so savings come from tariff optimization, demand management and on-site generation. That rules out supplier switching — so we go after the levers that do work here: rate class and tariff review, demand charge reduction, bill auditing and efficiency.
How Energy Buying Works in Los Angeles
Los Angeles, CA sits in the CAISO wholesale market, open to competition since 1998. Local distribution is handled by LADWP, a municipal utility, so there is no competitive supply market to bid into.

What does move the number is being on the correct rate schedule, cutting the demand component of your bill, and recovering billing errors — which is where we work.
