Carbonrally joins gaming with cutting carbon emissions
EnerNOC Inc. will provide carbon-tracking systems to a bottle manufacturing cooperative that serves Coca-Cola, the company announced Wednesday.
Best known for its demand response service, which pays companies to reduce their power during peak hours, Boston-based EnerNOC has expanded into other areas, including measurement and management of greenhouse gas emissions.
The latest customer for the “CarbonSMART” service is Southeastern Container, a North Carolina-based company owned by a group of Coca-Cola bottling companies. Southeastern Container plans to deploy the enterprise software-as-a-service carbon management application across its North American locations, which are in 32 states and three Canadian provinces and handle the major of U.S. bottle production for Coca-Cola. A dollar figure was not disclosed for the deal.
“Managing our carbon footprint isn’t just about reporting a number,” said John Fischer, general manager for the northeast region at Southeastern Container, in the announcement. “It’s a matter of turning that number into actionable energy efficiency insights that can drive bottom line savings for our organization, while helping us to meet our corporate sustainability and carbon reduction goals.”
In April, the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resource (DOER) awarded EnerNOC a contract to help reduce energy costs at more than 470 state-owned facilities. The project hopes to reach energy savings of 5 to 15 percent, with an ultimate goal of saving $10 million annually.
