Energy Consumption
All new Hudson’s Bay Company stores are equipped with energy-efficient lighting and building automation systems (BAS). BAS are store-level energy control systems connected to a central web-based monitoring and tracking station. We also continue to retrofit our existing network of stores with same technology. Through these stations, we can monitor daily consumption and equipment failures, and work with individual stores to minimize our energy use.
Biodiesel Fleet
In 2006 Hudson’s Bay Company partnered with Transport Canada and Energy Advantage to conduct a pilot project on the use of biodiesel in Hudson’s Bay Company’s transport trucks. Transport Canada has recently completed a case study of this pilot which is a great testament to the success of this project.
