Initiatives to reduce energy use in cold stores

Mechanical Engineering and Design

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper › peer-review

Abstract

The cold chain is believed to be responsible for approximately 2.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions through direct and indirect (energy consumption) effects. Cold storage rooms consume considerable amounts of energy. Within cold storage facilities 60-70% of the electrical energy can be used for refrigeration. Therefore cold store users have considerable incentive to reduce energy consumption.
