Company surpasses 20 billion kilowatt-hours of customer energy savings on its way to meeting its 25 billion kWh goal by 2025

MINNEAPOLIS, April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As Earth Day approaches, Energy Management Collaborative (EMC), a leader in delivering turnkey energy efficiency solutions, announces its progress towards an ambitious milestone set for 2025. With one year to go, EMC is closing in on saving customers a staggering 25 billion kilowatt-hours of energy—the equivalent of 10.4 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) — demonstrating the company's commitment to scaling energy efficiency projects for its Fortune 500 customers in support of their energy saving and net zero sustainability goals.

Since Earth Day 2023, EMC has recorded notable achievements, including:

• Surpassing 20 billion kilowatt-hours in energy savings, the equivalent to greenhouse gas emissions from almost 2 million gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year.
• Implementing advanced LED lighting projects contributing to extensive energy reduction.
• Expanding smart building controls and IoT solutions for enhanced energy management.
• Advancing UV-C disinfection lighting technologies for safer, cleaner environments.
• Continuing maintenance and warranty support, ensuring long-term energy efficiency.
• Growing infrastructure for Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) in response to rising demand.

"From energy efficient LED lighting to smart building environments, EMC has helped customers meet today's high expectations for net zero performance with their existing building portfolios," said EMC CEO and Chairman Jerry Johnson.

"With each kilowatt-hour saved, we move closer to a more sustainable world for all. By Earth Day 2025, we aim not only to meet but surpass our goal, catalyzing change across industries and communities," Johnson added.

Building on last year's successful initiatives, this Earth Day, April 22, 2024, EMC will again provide free EV charging at its headquarters to advocate for sustainable transportation and promote the adoption of electric vehicles.

EMC has received numerous awards since April 2023, highlighting the company's innovative approach and market leadership. This past year, EMC was awarded Top Energy Savings and Energy Efficiency Performer by Utility Providers Ameren Missouri and Appalachian Power as well as Top Performing Trade Ally by PECO and Gold ProNet Partner by National Grid. EMC has also received awards like the IoT Breakthrough Award and the Sapphire Award for Design Excellence in Networked Lighting Controls, underscoring the importance of EMC's work in shaping the future of energy efficiency.

More and more organizations recognize the value of partnering with a turnkey provider such as EMC for their lighting and control upgrades to optimize their energy reductions. These partnerships significantly reduce energy costs for clients and are essential to help them attain their corporate social responsibility strategies and address ESG reporting.
