Business challenges

Our client wanted to take energy-saving measures into its own hands. Not only would it garner major social approval, improve its regulatory compliance, and help keep the Earth clean, but it could also enjoy cost savings along the way. At the time, very little had been done to understand its energy consumption at the different sites, and its internal IT team lacked the capacity to design a solution from which to draw actionable insights.

1

Track energy consumption at all hotels and restaurants.

2

Generate awareness of energy inefficiencies and form impactful action plans.

3

Improve compliance with federal and local regulations.

4

Reduce costs associated with energy management.
