HVAC-R systems are the largest consumers of electricity in commercial buildings, and achieving savings in air conditioning and refrigeration will have a large impact on electricity consumption and carbon footprint. We partner with Smartcool Systems to provide an energy efficiency solution for commercial and industrial cooling and refrigeration systems.

Smartcool's unique retrofit technology use intelligent compressor optimization, which can reduce the energy consumption of compressors in air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump systems by up to 40%, by improving the performance of the compressors while maintaining the ability to control temperature and humidity. With over 30,000 successful installations globally, it is a proven solution which provides energy savings from Day 1 with an average payback period of 24-36 months.

Applications include:

• Small commercial refrigeration such as walk-in cold rooms and DX cooling (15-30% savings)

• Split type air conditioning including VRV / VRF systems (15-30% savings)

• Large commercial refrigeration systems (10-20% savings)

• Chillers for air conditioning (10-20% savings)

• Industrial process cooling (10-20% savings)

Key features:

• Reduces compressor run times through more efficient control

• Interfaces with existing controls (does not replace them) and uses interface methodology approved by equipment manufacturers

• Zero risk to current equipment or effect on manufacturer warranty

• Maintains temperature performance

• Provable savings
