McKesson achieves $2M in energy savings with zero capital investment

For three years, McKesson struggled to implement energy-efficient upgrades due to competing demands on its capital budget and limited internal resources. However, the company recognized it needed to move quickly to keep the sustainability goals in its Advancing Health Outcomes for All® initiative on track. McKesson began searching for a partner that could deliver energy optimization upgrades across its portfolio, allowing its teams to stay focused on operations and business growth.

Redaptive conducted a site-by-site analysis to identify and prioritize energy optimization across McKesson’s manufacturing facilities in the U.S. Redaptive developed a comprehensive roadmap to McKesson’s corporate initiatives via a turnkey LED lighting retrofit program. The program was implemented at 28 facilities, totaling 6.5 million square feet, without impacting facility operations. 

Redaptive’s program enabled McKesson to meet its business and ESG initiatives without tying up capex, enabling the company to invest in growth initiatives. Through Redaptive’s program, McKesson will avoid 8,970 metric tons of CO₂ emissions over 10 years, equivalent to removing 20,861 barrels of oil. To measure the impact of the program, Redaptive installed power meters to track progress toward its long-term sustainability goals and its Advancing Health Outcomes for All® corporate initiative.
