Redaptive helps Trinchero Family Estates lower greenhouse gas emissions by 23,000 metric tons of CO2

Trinchero Family Estates, the fourth largest winery in the U.S. with more than 50 brands, and Energy-as-a-Service company Redaptive announced the success of their lighting retrofit program—the first phase of an energy savings partnership between the two companies.

Through Redaptive's Energy-as-a-Service model, Trinchero Family Estates accelerated its LED lighting program without allocating any of its own funds and will pay for the upgrades through the energy cost savings generated. For Trinchero Family Estates, this means more internal capital to fund core business investments and other sustainability efforts

Redaptive upgraded more than 5,000 lighting fixtures to energy-efficient LEDs and lighting controls during the program, resulting in significant energy waste reduction across several winery facilities. The program will result in more than $5 million in gross operating expense savings and a decrease of 32-million kilowatt hours in energy consumption—equivalent to 23-thousand metric tons of CO2 or more than 54-thousand barrels of oil.
