With a current retro-commissioning job in the Chicagoland area, our customer urged us to get in touch with ComEd and get registered in their Energy Efficiency program.  They wanted us to include any incentives they offered into our deliverable.

The ComEd Energy Efficiency Program offers incentives to all types of business customers. The utility company supports those efforts by initially funding the energy study, so there is no up-front investment by the grocer or commercial building owner.

If you’re retro-commissioning a supermarket store, you’ll save money by having a licensed refrigeration technician on your team. This post explains why.

Retro-commissioning usually has three goals: save energy, identify maintenance problems, and identify candidates for future energy-conservation projects.

Because refrigeration equipment consumes more energy and requires more maintenance than any other component in a supermarket, it pays to evaluate it carefully during your retro-commissioning process.

These innovations help organizations set priorities for efficiency projects based on sustainability goals, speed of payback, and the measured return on investment. Contact Singh360 to see if these innovations fit with your facility and energy management strategy going forward.

When it comes to reducing energy in supermarkets, we either focus on refrigeration (because it consumes 40-50% of the total energy) or lighting (which is pretty easy to understand). 

However, HVAC equipments (almost 20% of the store power) are often overlooked though they can significantly impact energy consumption, provide customer comfort for better shopping experience and reduce food product quality and shrinkage.

So what are the ways HVAC energy consumption can be reduced in a retail environment? Here’s a roundup of the important ideas to consider in your store.
