Bglobal signs agreement with Superdrug to roll out smart meters at all UK stores
Bglobal plc (AIM: BGBL), the leading smart metering and energy data services company, announces that it has signed an agreement with Superdrug, the UK's second-largest beauty and health retailer, to install smart meters at all of its UK stores, totalling over 900 sites. The installation programme is planned to commence by the end of September 2009.
As part of its strategic commitment to reduce its energy consumption, the smart meters will allow Superdrug to precisely monitor its energy usage, enabling it to effectively manage its overall consumption and control costs.
Anthony Barnes, Group Chief Executive of Bglobal commented: 'We are delighted to have reached this agreement with Superdrug and look forward to starting the roll out of meters in their stores shortly. We have been working very closely with Superdrug over the past six months to plan the installation programme, which will take place in phases, in order to ensure minimal disruption to its business operations. This new contract reflects the major acceleration we have seen in the UK market of our clients implementing solutions that reduce energy consumption, driven by initiatives such as the Government's CRC programme.'
