Conveyor Belt to Energy Savings: an adidas Case Study

After EDF Climate Corps fellow Eric Shrag investigated energy efficiency opportunities in The adidas Group's distribution facilities, the company created a set of guidelines for new distribution center construction. This case study dives into that process.
