A: Collaboration This is the story of National Grid Page 11 Who are they? National Grid is an international electricity and gas company. They are one of the largest energy companies i iin th the world. ld Page 12 National Grid What were their goals? Build a benchmark building g in energy gy performance as U.S. Headquarters Demonstrate low energy lighting to their clients Create an attractive workplace for the National Grid staff Page 13 National Grid How to achieve their goals? Assemble a collaborative team that will work toward sustainable goals with a focus on lighting.
