At CrunchEnergy, we understand the unique challenges retailers face: Large open square footage that's difficult to heat, cool, light or refrigerate – compounded by razor-thin margins. That's part of what makes energy efficiency so critical in retail: For a retailer with a net profit margin of 3%, $1 in energy savings is equivalent to $33 in sales!
