Commercial Refrigeration System Energy Consumption: VFDs Benefit Your Power Company
August 7, 2018
Reducing the commercial refrigeration system energy consumption of your convenience store, supermarket or grocery store is a great way to save money on your energy bills. In addition, using less electricity at your business also allows your local power provider to stretch their existing power generation assets and gives them time to potentially focus on moving toward renewable energy generation methods. Therefore, finding a company that can assist you with reducing your commercial refrigeration system energy consumption is critical to the success of your project.
The team at Energy Optimization is just the company that can assist you with a project like this. Indeed, our team has assisted businesses like yours with approximately $750 million in energy projects over the past 23 years, and these projects have included the energy optimization, retrofitting and installation of commercial refrigeration systems. In order to help you reduce the commercial refrigeration system energy consumption of your business, Energy Optimization recommends installing new variable frequency drives in your commercial refrigeration systems.
Benefits Variable Frequency Drives Create for Your Commercial Refrigeration System Energy Consumption and Your Community
Commercial refrigeration system energy consumption is something that your business should definitely consider reducing because such reductions carry a number of benefits for you, which may include lower electric bills and energy savings. In addition to the benefits reducing your energy consumption has for your, this task may also have significant benefits for the community you serve.
Lowering the energy consumption of your business can benefit your community by helping your local electric company to stretch its existing power generation assets. Overall, the Energy Information Administration estimated that our U. S. commercial sector used about 1.35 trillion kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity in 2017, and of this total, fourteen percent was used to power refrigeration systems like those used by your business.
That’s an awful lot of power that your local electric company has to generate, but if your business reduces its energy consumption, then your power producer can stretch their generation assets and potentially use the breathing space to focus on bringing more renewable power generation assets online, which would have significant benefits for the fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas production of your community.
Energy Optimization is here to assist you with generating positive benefits for you and your community through commercial refrigeration system energy consumption reduction solutions like variable frequency drives. These drives can assist you in lowering your energy usage thanks to up-graded drive components such as:
