Shares of J. C. Penney Company, Inc. (NYSE:JCP), inclined 0.65% to $9.32, during its last trading session.
After years of planned focus and thoughtful capital investment, JCPenney declared the long-term results of various Company initiatives that incorporate sustainability practices in its day-to-day business operations. The Company also renewed its commitment to energy administration and conservation as it continues to explore new and improved ways of lessening its impact on the environment.
Energy Campaign Produces Results
In 2009, JCPenney established a large-scale conservation strategy to reduce energy consumption. After five years of aggressive energy administration by associates, various building upgrades across the chain, and watchful remote monitoring of HVAC and lighting systems, JCPenney reduced total Company energy usage by 19 percent - a cost avoidance of nearly $100 million and a noteworthy reduction of carbon dioxide emissions.
An achievement of this scale required strong associate participation, especially amid major renovations within hundreds of stores during the course of the campaign. It is estimated that nearly 46% of energy saved came from conservation and operational improvements. The energy-intensive construction associated with the modernization of millions of square feet of selling space in the Men`s, Women`s, Kid`s and Home departments made electricity conservation particularly challenging. In fact, it is estimated that without the conservation efforts of JCPenney associates and planned capital investment by the Company during the five-year campaign, base energy consumption would have raised nearly 2.0 percent.
J.C. Penney Company, Inc., through its partner, J. C. Penney Corporation, Inc., sells merchandise through department stores in the United States. The company sells family apparel and footwear, accessories, fine and fashion jewelry, beauty products, and home furnishings, in addition to provides various services, counting styling salon, optical, portrait photography, and custom decorating.
