Case Study: Canada’s Largest Tech Retailer achieves 18% energy savings with GridPoint

The Source Saw 18% Savings Within One Month

Canada’s largest tech retailer, The Source, faced rising utility costs across hundreds of Canadian locations and needed a scalable way to improve energy efficiency without disrupting stores or staff. GridPoint provided its Energy Management platform to give The Source real-time visibility and control over energy usage across locations.

Using GridPoint’s cloud-based solution, The Source centralized control of HVAC systems, automated temperature scheduling, and used analytics to detect anomalies and support proactive maintenance. The pilot delivered a return on investment in one month and cut energy costs by 18% within three months, leading The Source to expand the rollout to 50 more stores.
