Supplied and installed LED lighting upgrades across over 200 BT sites and 190 EE retail stores.
As part of its Net Zero strategy BT required an overhaul of its lighting across the entire estate. Energys Group was initially awarded the BT plc lighting contract in March 2016 for 2 years following a successful tender submission and BT subsequently extended for another 3 year term. In 2019 Energys Group was also awarded a contract extension to upgrade the lighting in all of the EE stores in the UK.
Over the contract term Energys Group worked closely with BT’s facilities management organisations – initially BTFS (BT Facilities Services) and latterly CBRE on over 200 BT sites and a further 160 EE stores – a varied mix of Corporate Offices, Call Centres, Data Centres, TEC’s, TE’s, ATE’s, Retail Outlets and Fleet Workshops to upgrade both internal and external lighting to LED.
