This
study’s research objective was to gauge the usage of building technologies (BT)
within U.S. retail chains with at least five stores. Data was collected in
August 2011 using Web-based survey, which sampled 182 U.S. managers. Retailers
were familiar with all BT the survey contained, but technologies most commonly
employed included fire suppression and detection systems, HVAC and energy
management systems, and remote monitoring systems. Energy efficiency proved
important to retailers, as most already implemented measures. Budgets for BT
generally either increased or remained steady from 2010 to 2011.
