Energy Optimisation and Refrigeration

Johnson Controls worked with a leading UK food supplier, Cranswick Country Foods, to optimise a new industrial refrigeration system of the pig abattoir in Watton, Norfolk. This presentation shows that by installing Sabroe industrial refrigeration heat pump reciprocating compressors, the company was able to reduce the energy costs by £500k per year, increase the productivity by 30% and decrease the weight loss of the carcasses from 2,3% to 1,4%. This solution set a new industry standard, as it not only monitors and trends the performance of the plant, but also actively hunts for optimal set points to reduce energy usage.
