PROJECT
Environmental solutions as clear as glass
Bucher Emhart Glass and their parent company Bucher Industries are proactively focused on improved sustainability and operational costs.
Cost efficiency and reduction is just as much a priority as sustainability, and the two often go hand-in-hand. Emhart Glass joined hands with their NRG account executive Jonathan Rowe to navigate that process.
When costs are under control, businesses have more options to spend more on what means the most to them. In Emhart Glass’s case, their vigorous sustainability projects require a large amount of capital, so it was important to them to reduce and manage costs effectively.
“When we first started talking about energy and seasonal volumes and impact, it was very quickly understood that it is a minefield of information that Jonathan explained. We were for sure novices regarding energy variables and opportunities compared to the knowledge of Jonathan – and it is so much more than what is on and what is off. It is complex and needs to be understood to make the right decisions regarding cost, savings, and sustainability,” says David Brown, Emhart Glass Plant Manager.
Many businesses wonder where to begin, what products are available, and how to best navigate energy market fluctuations. Jonathan took the time to gather a detailed overview of Emhart Glass’s slated projects, business needs, and budget, to tailor a contract and product package to supporting the company’s ambitious sustainability goals. Emhart Glass looks forward to NRG’s continued collaboration and guidance on the nuances of energy contracts, new products, and emerging technologies.
