NRM Success Story
Vineyard Cash and Carry
Martha's Vineyard
In the 14+ years they've had NRM’s solution, Vineyard Cash & Carry has saved roughly $50,000 in real dollars and nearly 475,000 kWh that otherwise would've been spent on energy use.
Some of the best success stories we have are our long-term customers who have sort of become “invisible.” Meaning, they’ve rarely—or never—had a problem with the controls, or question that couldn’t be resolved, and they just let NRM’s solution do its thing, chugging right along merrily.
One such customer is John Averill and the Vineyard Cash and Carry on Martha’s Vineyard. He’s had NRM’s controls for 14 years (!!), and has saved well over $50K in real dollars through our energy-efficiency measures. Which includes smart temperature controls, high-efficient fan motors, and anti-sweat door heater controls.
Recently, John had the controls upgraded to our most recent model, and he’ll be saving even more money moving forward because his refrigeration will now be running on a cooling schedule based around his hours of operation.

"I’m extremely happy with NRM’s controls and would recommend them to any other business owner on the island that has walk-in coolers. Brian, their installer, was very helpful throughout the whole process and showed me how I would be saving energy. I’ve had the controls for 14 years, and look forward to another 14 of saving money."
