Each year, LADWP celebrates our largest customers’ achievements in electrification, efficiency, and conservation at our annual Sustainability Awards event. Launched in 2016 and hosted by our Key Accounts Section, the Sustainability Awards recognize our commercial, governmental, and institutional customers’ significant positive environmental impacts achieved through participation in our rebate programs. Since the event’s inception, we have honored more than 100 of our largest customers at this event.
By keeping water and electric use efficient, and by adopting electric vehicles and installing chargers, our largest customers are able to save on costs, conserve natural resources, and contribute to the environmental goals of the City of Los Angeles.
In 2025, our Key Accounts Section hosted the 10th annual event on April 10 and honored 20 customers for their significant achievements in Energy Efficiency, Water Conservation and Electrification of Transportation. In total, the actions taken by the 2025 honorees saved more than 11.5 million KWH and conserved more than 1.6 million gallons of water last year. Transportation electrification honorees installed 396 Level 2 EV chargers and 50 Level 3 DCFC EV chargers.
