Rank has been entertaining Britain since 1937 through its gaming-based entertainment brands. It is the only operator offering customers both venue and digital bingo and casino experiences in the UK. Its branded venues and digital channels include Grosvenor Casinos and grosvenorcasinos.com, Mecca and meccabingo.com.
Grosvenor is the UK’s largest multi-channel casino operator (by venues) with 51 venues and Mecca is the second largest bingo operator in Great Britain (by venues) with 56 venues.
Over the next three years our team at Cloud will deploy Mindsett PRISM® and its energy management technology, across Rank Group’s sites. We will also deliver asset monitoring and data consultancy to help minimise energy consumption and maximise carbon reduction.
Cloud has initially installed over 600 PRISM® devices across 40 Rank sites, moving to cover their full estate over time.
We’re providing bespoke reporting, dashboards, and a mobile app that will help the teams at Mecca and Grosvenor take ownership of their consumption and enable positive behavioural change.
Cloud and Rank have agreed a set of outcomes to reach over the coming years, these include:
– Joint energy reduction targets across all sites which will amount to a saving of £5.1 million in electricity costs and an 18% reduction in run rate.
– A return on investment in just 18 months with a 204% ROI in five years.
– The provision of dashboards and an energy management app for all key staff at each site, expanded to include oil and gas consumption in addition to electricity.
– 12,000 assets will be connected to Mindsett PRISM® devices across all sites, allowing us to collect over 10 billion data points annually. These data points enable the team at Cloud to deliver the Mindsett INDEX and Mindsett RAINBOW (our predictive maintenance programme).
– Within 12 months of installation Mindsett will introduce the Mindsett Index and Mindsett Rainbow modules, both contributing to a reduction in capital replacements, non-trading events, and planned maintenance costs.
“We set out some ambitious goals in our latest ESG report with the aim to invest in efficient and responsible operations to reduce our impact on the environment. Our new partnership with Cloud will help us accelerate our carbon reduction plans across our estate.
Cloud has developed some great technology that gives a granular view of energy use in real- time and a framework to be able to use that information to change behaviours that will benefit the environment.”
