Case Study: a multi-state convenience store chain achieves 6% energy savings with ENTOUCH smart building solutions

Convenience Store Energy Solution

A multi-state convenience store chain faced rising energy costs and a severe lack of visibility into its facility equipment across 225 locations. Key challenges included unmanaged HVAC systems causing damage, undetected refrigeration failures leading to product loss, and inefficient lighting and food service equipment operation. The chain partnered with ENTOUCH and selected its Entouch.one, Entouch.cloud, and Entouch.360™ solutions to gain real-time monitoring and control.

ENTOUCH implemented a comprehensive energy management system featuring smart controllers, sensors, and cloud-based analytics. This provided the chain with a centralized view of all equipment, automated controls, and 24/7 monitoring. The results included a 6% reduction in overall energy savings and a 10% reduction in HVAC energy usage. The solution also drastically reduced equipment downtime and provided early warnings for refrigeration failures, saving significant revenue from spoiled merchandise.
