When is the Last Time You Scheduled a Grocery Store Energy Evaluation?
April 9, 2018
If you own or manage a grocery store, you understand the significant impact your energy bill has on your bottom line. Grocery stores commonly have a high energy bill, sometimes making energy consumption the largest monthly expense over inventory. For this reason, it is important to have a routine energy evaluation to determine any areas where you can reduce energy consumption and save money.
Almost everything required to open the doors of your grocery store runs off of energy. Your food (inventory) is protected by large commercial refrigeration systems, as well as HVAC heating and cooling systems that operate 24-hours a day. These alone consume a large amount of energy month over month. But what if you could reduce the amount of energy consumed and still meet the specifications required to operate your grocery store?
