GreenYellow supports the Printemps group in the ambitious energy transformation of its strategic warehouse in Seine-et-Marne.
- GreenYellow, a major player in the energy transition, specializing in decentralized solar photovoltaic production and energy efficiency projects, is supporting the Printemps group, one of France’s leading retailers in the fashion, luxury, beauty and lifestyle sectors, with energy efficiency work at its strategic warehouse in Seine-et-Marne.
- This partnership is part of a 10-year Energy Efficiency Agreement (EEA) aimed at sustainably reducing the site’s energy consumption.
Ambitious work to boost energy efficiency
As part of its sustainable development strategy, the Printemps group is embarking on a new 10-year decarbonization project. The work, which began last March, involves the installation of an electric underfloor heating system coupled with a heat pump. This modernization will replace the old energy-guzzling system with an efficient, energy-saving solution that will reduce energy costs over the long term, while ensuring optimum comfort for the warehouse’s employees.
This project integrates GreenYellow’s #SHIFTEfficiency offer, designed to significantly reduce its clients’ energy bills and carbon footprint, while optimizing their equipment.
A project in line with the Printemps Group’s CSR strategy
The work carried out, combined with efficient monitoring and operation, will enable the Printemps group to achieve 1 GWh in energy savings, representing a 60% reduction in the warehouse’s heating consumption. This EEA is fully in line with the Printemps Group’s CSR approach, and more specifically illustrates the “Responsible Group” pillar encapsulating all initiatives aimed at reducing the Group’s energy consumption. These include replacing all light sources with energy-efficient LED lighting, strictly controlling interior and exterior store lighting, controlling air-conditioning and heating, keeping store doors closed when using this equipment, and raising employee awareness of best practices.
With this strategic partnership, GreenYellow expands its portfolio of Energy Efficiency achievements in the logistics sector, affirming its central role in helping companies achieve optimized, sustainable energy management.
“This project to transform our heating system is fully in line with the Printemps Group’s CSR approach launched almost 10 years ago. It illustrates our determination to reduce the direct impact of our activities on the environment, while ensuring optimal working conditions for our employees. GreenYellow’s expertise was decisive in identifying the technical solution best suited to our needs, and the EEA secured the expected gains over the long term. Last but not least, the quality of the discussions with the GreenYellow teams during the study, contracting and implementation phases reinforced our choice.” says Alexandre Bonnier, Logistics Director for the Printemps group.
“We are honored to have been chosen by the Printemps group for this major project. Our decarbonization solutions will get back to the group’s expectations, and this partnership demonstrates our mutual commitment to the energy transition. We are proud to contribute to the success of these initiatives, and to support the Printemps Group in its objectives to reduce carbon emissions. .” adds Romain Butte, Managing Director of GreenYellow France.
