Sustainability -- Energy & the Environment

Retailers have always faced a wide array of challenges in building their businesses and nurturing their customer relationships.  At many retailers energy efficiency and environmental stewardship have been part of the operational mix for a long time.  However, over the past few years these issues have taken on a new urgency ... an urgency driven by rising energy costs, more demanding regulatory environments and increasing consumer awareness.

A Climate of Change

Business as usual does not meet business need anymore.  So, a climate of change is sweeping through the reatil industry. Savvy retailers are proactively improving their environmental scorecard. They are implementing energy management solutions that not only reduce energy consumption but also provide energy information platforms that leverage IT infrastructure to increase transparency and enable collaboration.  Such systems, known as OpenEMS, not only reduce energy and operating costs, but they provide transparent visibility of progress toward environmental goals. They also facilitate the exchange of information among product, power, and service providers who make up a retailer's energy ecosystem.  Retailers embracing OpenEMS concepts are able to reduct human capital requirements and effectively capture energy information to improve their brand's reputation.
