Client engagements
Don’t just take our word for it.
Here are some real world examples of what retail property clients have achieved with our help. If they sound like the results you want, let’s talk.
Chorus
Challenge
Chorus operate telecommunication sites right across New Zealand and had a goal of reducing costs and improving visibility
Solution
In 2015, ESP installed electrical sub-metering at 7 of Chorus’s core sites followed by Type 2 Energy Audit. This resulted in better energy use visibility and energy efficiency recommendations. In 2016, following the success of the initial work, ESP extended the retail metering rollout which allowed data from each of the 93 sites to be ingested into ESP’s advance data analytics platform. ESP have since then provided peak demand analysis, power use effectiveness tracking, energy alerts, regular steering group meetings to enable the asset managers to have complete visibility of their assets.
Outcome
The continuous energy efficiency engagement has resulted in a 16% reduction in energy usage since the start of the programme. ESP continues to work with Chorus to optimise energy and related costs at their sites.
Mobil Oil
Challenge
Mobil were looking for a way to reduce energy usage at 118 fuel stations across New Zealand. ESP benchmarked the sites according to type and provided a cost-effective solution for a monitoring and targeting programme.
Solution
A combination of retail and sub-load metering was installed at 20 fuel stations across the country. These sites were the most energy intensive. ESP carried out site reviews and set up frequent steering group meetings to review, track, and implement the actions that were recommended.
Outcome
The project has resulted in energy reduction of $440,000 since September 2017. ESP continue to monitor the sites as well as discuss new recommendations with Mobil to continue their energy efficiency journey.
ASB
Challenge
ASB has branches of various sizes located all around New Zealand. Traditional energy efficiency approaches werent working – the team just couldnt be everywhere at once. Despite a range of efficiency improvements being taken, energy use and costs kept rising.
Solution
Initial analysis identified significant opportunities for improvement – right from Dargaville in the North to Christchurch in the South. In 2012, as a market first, energy monitoring was installed at every ASB branch and Energy Management Plan implemented to target a 20% reduction initially.
Outcome
ASB’s early leadership in energy efficiency and carbon reduction has seen energy use across the entire portfolio decrease by a staggering 46%. ASB has utilised the data analytics of the ESP platform and the ESP engineering team to embed energy and sustainability into their every day business.
