Ford Motor Co selects NEEM to improve energy efficiency within Detroit headquarters facilities
DANBURY, Conn. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - New England Energy Management (NEEM) announced today it has been chosen
by Ford Motor Co to implement energy efficiency projects for Ford's
Detroit Campus facilities. The project scope will encompass retrofitting
or replacement of over 50,000 light fixtures, implementing the use of
Lighting Control Systems & Daylight Dimming controls to achieve maximum
efficiency. The projects will be installed with no up front cost, the
resulting energy savings will go to pay NEEM over a five year term,
affording a cash flow neutral scenario for Ford.
NEEM's proven performance within 18 Ford Distribution facilities enabled
Ford to receive the 2008 EnergyStar partner of the year.
Regarding NEEM, Arthur LaChapelle - Ford Parts Supply & Logistics,
comments included: "We have worked with NEEM on relighting our Parts
Distribution Centers, with considerable success. Not only have our light
levels improved but our electrical costs have been significantly
reduced. Many companies have processes in place to service their
customers professionally and provide quality while doing so, but NEEM
goes beyond the processes. All personnel performed at the highest levels
of professional practice, from the President of the company to the
installers demonstrated to me that these things aren't just part of a
written mission statement hanging on a wall. Every aspect of each
installation was completed to our expectations or beyond. Their
attention for customer satisfaction comes from a mind set, a deep
commitment to doing business that way and no other. NEEM is one of my
top contractors."
Speaking for NEEM, Scott Hinson, President stated: "Ford's commitment to
efficiency and process is in alignment with our commitment to exemplary
customer service. Ford has shown its drive for green technology through
manufacturing, distribution and through to its dealership network, and
NEEM is excited about our role in these initiatives."
The environmental benefits of NEEM installed projects within Ford
facilities nationwide are equal to planting 3 million trees each
year.
