BARRIER
New technologies often face skepticism; and once proven, there is no path to scale them across the portfolio.
SOLUTION
Design a pilot to measure the full benefits of a technology and invite company decision-makers to see the positive impacts firsthand.
OUTCOME
Belk reduced its in-store energy consumption at a single location by more than 27% after retrofitting the lighting system with LED lights; after seeing the project firsthand, executives approved a redesign of Belk’s entire lighting infrastructure.
