Upgrades To Enhance Customer
Experience and Building Value

BrandsMart, one of the nation’s largest appliance retailers, has been an active proponent of energy efficiency and a role model for the use of PACE funding. In 2014, Ygrene provided $2.1M in funding for upgrades at BrandsMart’s Palmetto Bay store. Enhanced heating and cooling equipment, LED lighting, and modifications to the energy control system are projected to save BrandsMart’s Palmetto Bay location $135,000 annually in energy costs; $195,000 in 2015 in energy, operations and maintenance costs; and $1.6 million in maintenance over the life of the measures.

- Stacey Lawson, Ygrene Vice Chairman
