A leading variety goods value retailer in the UK, known for its extensive range of products, pledged to focus on reducing lighting energy consumption and aims to transition all its stores to LED lighting by FY27.
The company’s ESG strategy includes a commitment to reducing Scope 1 & 2 carbon emissions by 25% by 2030.
The retailer asked us to help them achieve greater control of lighting energy use across their whole estate. This was driven by their Scope 2 carbon reduction commitments, as well as a need to mitigate the impact of energy price hikes and increased operational costs.
We delivered a custom solution:
The retailer initially wanted to use existing hard-wired cabling to reduce overall initial cost. We recommended a custom solution that used a smaller number of smart nodes to control store runs, control of luminaires during trading and stocking periods, thereby enabling full retail control.
Lights can now be dimmed to 40-50% during trading and 20% during stocking – this delivers a huge overall saving when compared with the previous system.
Energy Savings: £4.5 million annual (total) savings (verified data)
Energy Saved per Store: £36,000 (verified data)
Supporting ESG Goals: The carbon savings achieved as a result of this project will contribute to the retailer’s goal of a 25% reduction in Scope 1 & 2 carbon emissions by 2030.
