The thesis

Why this org is unusual

Consolidated Edison’s most distinctive structural feature is that its regulated utility operating CEOs report directly to the holding company CEO rather than through a COO layer.

Timothy P. Cawley simultaneously serves as group CEO and CEO of Con Edison of New York, concentrating operating and regulatory accountability at the top.

The structure is otherwise a traditional utility holding-company model, with finance, legal, and IT centralized at the parent while day‑to‑day electric and gas operations sit inside regulated subsidiaries. The absence of a COO and the small C‑suite reflect the company’s regulated focus, where capital planning, rate cases, and risk oversight matter more than rapid product iteration.

  • No COO role
  • Operating utility president reports directly to CEO
