A ENTOUCH Case Study
El Pollo Loco, a rapidly expanding national restaurant chain, faced rising energy costs and limited visibility into equipment performance that threatened margins. To manage energy without adding staff, El Pollo Loco selected ENTOUCH and its EnTouch 360™ energy management solution to gain simple reporting and centralized oversight across new and existing locations.
ENTOUCH deployed EnTouch 360™ across dozens of restaurants, delivering HVAC and lighting controls, branch energy monitoring, and a cloud-based management app with remote access. The system uncovered HVAC and lighting issues, automated schedules, enabled sub-load benchmarking, and validated fixes after truck-rolls—helping El Pollo Loco achieve 6% annual energy savings overall and 10% HVAC savings, while reducing downtime and improving operational visibility.
