What Energy CX's NYC Expansion Means for the Northeast

Start spreading the news, Energy CX is coming to New York City.

The Chicago-based data-driven energy brokerage redefining how businesses buy energy is expanding its national presence to the Northeast. The move is a response to years of demand the company has been building in the region.

A Market Energy CX Has Always Called Important

New York and the broader Northeast have been part of Energy CX's story for a long time. Commercial real estate owners, healthcare systems, hospitality groups, manufacturers and other businesses across the region have turned to Energy CX as energy costs climb and market volatility makes every procurement decision feel higher-stakes than the last.

The difference now? Energy CX is putting a physical presence behind what's already a strong regional footprint. A New York City office is expected to open in the second half of 2026, and the company is actively hiring New York-based go-to-market professionals to lead the charge ahead of that launch.

"New York and the neighboring East Coast cities have always been an important market for us, and this expansion is a natural reflection of that," said Co-CEO Scott Hammes.

Built on Growth That Speaks for Itself

The NYC expansion doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's the product of sustained, compounding momentum.

Over the past few years, Energy CX has grown its Chicago team from 8 to 120 employees and experienced 182% three-year revenue growth that earned them back-to-back placements on the Inc. 5000 list, in 2024 and again in 2025. That kind of trajectory demands investment in the infrastructure and talent to support it.

New York City is the centerpiece of that next chapter.

Why This Matters for Northeast Energy Buyers

If you're managing commercial properties or operations in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, or anywhere across the Northeast, the complexity of energy procurement is nothing new. Deregulated markets create opportunity, but they also create risk. Volatile pricing, fragmented data and legacy brokerage relationships that prioritize commissions over outcomes have made it harder for businesses to buy energy the right way.

Energy CX was built to change that. Its proprietary platform, Analytics Based Energy Logic (ABEL™), gives customers access to real-time market intelligence and analytics that inform smarter purchasing decisions, turning energy from a line item into a managed financial asset.

Energy CX's expansion comes at a time when commercial energy buyers need strategic support more than ever. With electricity and natural gas costs continuing to climb nationally, the window between a smart procurement decision and an expensive one is narrowing.

The New York expansion was recently covered by Cision as part of broader coverage of Energy CX's growth trajectory.
