The City of San Diego’s GHG goals
Discover how Shell Energy is helping the City of San Diego to meet their ambitious aim of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to net zero energy by 2035.
Read more about this case studyWe helped the Penske Turnersville Auto Mall convert to cleaner energy solutions at 10 of their locations, resulting in 20% energy savings over 11 months.
Successful installation of the company’s EMS meant any HVAC issues could be addressed via a straightforward optimization program. As a result, eleven months’ savings in 10 locations totaled over $161,000 and a total energy reduction of 20.4%. Watch the video above to learn more about our collaboration with Penske.

Peter Klein
Area Vice President, Turnersville Auto Mall
Peter Klein says:
We’ve been working with them on three key areas. Total management of our HVAC system for the auto mall, updating and upgrading our exterior lights to LED units, and then submetering our electric vehicle chargers so that we have a better idea of what our demands will be as the EV business grows.

Chris Kaiser
Director Solutions Sales, Shell Energy
Chris Kaiser says:
One thing our team was able to do is really take the focus of implementing projects off of them and put it on the Shell Energy Solutions team. It really allows Peter and his team to focus on growing the business and satisfying customers.

Peter Klein interview to camera. He says:
I think for other PAG businesses, some of the lessons learned are that with some early involvement with the Shell team, we can basically turn the initiatives that they are experts on over to them. And they can handle the efficiency, they can handle the pricing, and the implementation of the programs, and we can focus on running our business. They’ve been a great partner throughout the entire process.

Operational issues from deferred maintenance, rising energy costs, and the implementation of EV technology left this national automotive consolidator searching for answers. The solution? A multi-facility energy management strategy.
From site visits, where we evaluated energy efficiency opportunities, to installation of new technology and ongoing maintenance, Shell Energy took a consultative approach in order to implement varied solutions, including:
Energy management
Energy efficiency: lighting, HVAC
Sub-metering
An energy management system (EMS) uses a blend of hardware, software, and managed services to continually collect and analyze a facility’s overall energy usage and the drivers behind it.
The right EMS helps to add a layer of automation, scheduling, and real-time response capabilities. Facility management can then set controls for HVAC, lighting, or other major systems, enabling them to remotely triage any issues as they arise. Instead of relying on manual audits or after-the-fact energy bills, this makes it possible to quickly detect and react to any internal or external conditions that may be accelerating costs and consumption. The result is a more streamlined operation, without having to cut corners.
