Case Study: VF Outlet achieves over 25% energy savings with GridPoint’s Energy Management Solution

VF Outlet Achieves Over 25% Savings with GridPoint’s Energy Management Solution

Vf Outlet, part of VF Corporation’s outlet chain, faced corporate sustainability targets and rising energy costs and needed a continuous, enterprise-wide way to reduce consumption and improve facility maintenance. After piloting options, Vf Outlet selected GridPoint’s Energy Management Solution (EMS) — including the GridPoint Energy Manager platform — to provide controls, submetering and ongoing advisory support.

GridPoint deployed HVAC and lighting controls, asset-level submetering and cloud-based monitoring at 25 sites and backed that with Energy Advisory and Control Support services. The GridPoint solution delivered measurable results: over 25% average energy savings (individual sites near 30%), a roughly 20-month payback, and more than $420,000 in quantified savings by mid-2015, while enabling peak-load curtailment, diagnostics and preventive maintenance.
