Retail Chain – Energy Management

Customer Need

A retail chain facilities manager wanted to reduce energy spend and gain asset-level insight into energy and site operations by deploying controls and submetering, but he did not have the budget to pay for the equipment.

Solution

The customer paid for energy management upgrades over time instead of upfront. This meant that the facilities manager could effectively fund the project through energy and operational savings, and he would now have visibility into the performance of critical equipment, including HVAC, fuel pumps, and refrigerators.

Results

Since deploying the energy management solution, the facilities manager has seen tangible results. In addition to saving $9,200 per year on utility bills and maintenance, he has been able to identify power quality issues, increasing the lifetime of equipment and saving on capital replacement costs.
