Keep It Cold for Less
Refrigeration compressors run round the clock, making power 60-70% of a cold storage facility's operating cost.
No industry feels tariff hikes like the cold chain. Compressors, blowers, and chillers never stop, and daytime ambient heat pushes consumption to its peak exactly when solar output peaks - a perfect offset.
With solar covering the daytime load, per-tonne storage costs drop immediately, margins improve, and your facility gains a real pricing advantage in a commodity business.
-
Peak cooling demand coincides with peak solar output
-
Directly attack the 60-70% of costs that are electricity
-
Improve per-tonne margins in a price-sensitive market
-
Reduce diesel backup dependence and running costs
