CHALLENGE
A large New England grocery chain was seeking an energy-saving solution that would improve their customer experience and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, they span over several utilities and needed a repeatable solution that would qualify for a utility rebate in all markets.
SOLUTIONS
After a successful pilot installation in Easton, MA—where multiple lighting systems were upgraded to LED—Aetna Corp. moved forward with Phase 1 of the project in Massachusetts. This phase included four additional installations located in Fall River, Sharon, and two sites in Boston.
RESULT
The total LED roll-out was over $1,100,000 collectively and garnered a return on investment of less than 2 years. This was thanks to a collective utility rebate of over 45% and an annual energy savings of nearly $350,000. In addition, the quality and uniformity of light is significantly better which ultimately improves their customer’s experience.
