A leader in retail pharmacies, Walgreens believes in giving back to their communities and is committed to reducing their carbon footprint across more than 9,000 locations. GridPoint and Walgreens have been energy efficiency and sustainability partners since 2009 to support expanded global energy and resiliency goals.
