The road to Freedom from high energy costs!

More and more energy & facility managers are benefiting from the advantages NexRev Freedom delivers for their multi-site facilities. Let’s find out more in our latest case study – read on and discover how Freedom saves money, enhances energy efficiency – and boosts your business!

Everyone that manages a portfolio of buildings wants the ability to quickly and easily adjust HVAC settings, control IoT sensors, reduce operating costs, and extend equipment life.  You can do all those things and more with Freedom Enterprise, NexRev’s multi-site cloud-based Energy Management System. With Freedom, you can manage remote sensors, monitor equipment, and get a single view of energy consumption and other key metrics across all your sites.

Why businesses need Freedom

Cost management and energy efficiency concerns are at the top of the agenda for many businesses, and those are areas where Freedom delivers a big advantage. Many companies are not realizing their full energy savings and optimizations because fine-tuning operational performance of many individual units across nationwide locations with many different floorplans is difficult to do. Freedom changes that.

How? Well, let’s take a glimpse at how one multi-site customer implemented Freedom Enterprise technology and has, since, generated significant cumulative savings across their sites.

Common problems

The company we’re talking about is a big-box chain with over 1,500 stores (including several superstores) across all 50 US states with annual sales that surpassed $1 billion. You can easily imagine the facilities management challenge at that scale. With so many locations there are significant energy costs to monitor and manage.

Facing such a situation, many energy & facility managers find themselves relying on legacy technology that isn’t keeping up with the rapidly evolving demands of the industry and, in the case of this company, depending on an end-of-life technology with limited support.

The company needed a technology partner that was flexible and had considerably enhanced functionality compared to their current solution. So, what to do?

Choosing Freedom

For this company, the ability to handle multiple brands each of which had different operational requirements from a single vantage point was critical. The goal was to be able to duplicate corporate policy standards for facilities across all its brands and divisions no matter the differences between sites.

The solution that fit company requirements would include pushing schedule changes, remote control over loads/setpoints, allow managers to connect directly to see alarm codes, remote connect of signage, HVAC, and lighting systems from a single point; All with configurable notifications and reporting.  Finding a solution that could deliver on those requirements was a challenge.

After reviewing their challenges with NexRev, the company selected Freedom as the solution of choice both because of the functionality it would provide and also because it knew that Freedom was a proven solution that many other leading retailers also relied on.

The results

Since the solution was deployed, the company has realized significant savings. If you are interested in learning more and stepping into the future with Freedom, download the complete Case Study of the deployment – and understand in detail how the deployment progressed – by clicking here.
