Ankush Karwa, the former CEO of EShopBox, a prominent e-commerce logistics company that specialized in fulfillment services for D2C and enterprise brands across India, acknowledged the potential of smart meters in optimizing electricity usage within warehouses. Despite initially overlooking energy management, Ankush recognized the value of Polaris's Smart Meters in reducing costs and enhancing sustainability efforts.

EShopBox's Past Landscape:

• Electricity comprised 6-7% of total warehouse expenses.
• Monthly electricity expenditure across all warehouses amounted to 15 lakh rupees.
• Electricity consumption was not actively tracked; only spikes in bills were addressed.
• Warehouse operational expenses, including electricity bills, were managed by the procurement team.

Ankush emphasized that even marginal savings, like a 1% reduction in electricity costs, could significantly impact the company's bottom line in the tightly controlled e-commerce logistics industry. Additionally, adopting Polaris Smart Meters aligned with EShopBox's sustainability goals by reducing energy usage and carbon footprint.

Ankush underscored the importance of clear communication, customizable features, and transparent pricing in influencing EShopBox's decision to consider and implement smart meters. Polaris Smart Meters, with their ability to address these key aspects, were poised to facilitate a successful partnership, enhancing sustainability and cost-efficiency for EShopBox.
