No-Sweat Humidity Management for Supermarkets – FMI Energy Conference, New Orleans

Singh360 Founder to Share Efficient Methods For Controlling Excessive Humidity in Stores. Supermarkets often struggle to control excess humidity during summer and fall. These are the seasons when doors are most likely to fog up on refrigerated cases.

High humidity is a headache for grocery retailers for several reasons, according to Abtar Singh, founder and chief executive officer of SINGH360.

That’s why he will present effective ways to control excess store humidity at the FMI Energy and Store Development Conference in New Orleans on September 13.

“Condensed moisture can make it hard for customers to see the contents inside a refrigerated case,” Singh said. “The fogged glass compromises the customer’s shopping experience. It may also reduce the retailer’s sales.”

Singh360 Services Help Supermarkets Collect Energy Efficiency Rebates & Incentives

Maple Grove, MN, August 11, 2014 – Supermarkets in the United States can now get expert help to secure energy-efficiency rebates from utilities.

The service is for supermarkets that invest in initiatives to improve energy efficiency but may not collect all the utility rebates for which they qualify, said Abtar Singh, chief executive of Singh360.

“Some supermarkets want help because the application process can take a lot of time and effort,” Singh said. “Supermarkets may be leaving a lot of money on the table.”

7 Rules of Thumb to Estimate Potential Energy Savings in Supermarket Refrigeration Systems

By applying seven easy rules of thumb, you can quickly estimate potential energy savings for refrigeration systems in a supermarket—even if you’re not an engineer.

With these rules you can make quick estimates in your head or on the back of an envelope. Your estimates are likely to be pretty accurate, even without a detailed audit. This information can help you spot big opportunities for potential savings. You’ll feel smart, and you may impress your colleagues.

This information can help you spot big opportunities for potential savings. You’ll feel smart, and you may impress your colleagues.

But be careful. These rules of thumb use averages for North American supermarkets. Even within North America, the numbers will vary for stores that have an unusual design or sell an unusual assortment of refrigerated foods.

Use of Variable Frequency Drives Cuts on HVAC Blower Cuts Energy Use by 45%

Maple Grove, MN (June 4, 2013): Use of variable-frequency drives (or VFDs) enabled Byerly’s grocery stores to cut energy use by almost half in blower-fan motors at five locations.

“VFDs make the operation of refrigeration systems smoother. If you implement them with the proper control strategy, they can reduce power consumption by 20% to 30% in those units,” Abtar Singh said. More than 95% of all installations of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (or HVAC) systems in the United States use single-speed motors rather VFDs.

VFDs save energy by running electric motors at variable speeds. They control the speed of the motor by changing the frequency or voltage of the alternating current (or AC) on which it runs. “When you reduce the speed of a fan motor by 20%, air flow decreases by 20%,” Singh said. “But energy use drops by 50%.”

Benefits of Asset Management System to Be Discussed SPECS 2013 Seminar

Maple Grove, MN (March 16, 2013): Store Planning, Equipment, Construction and Facilities Services Seminars (SPECS) will be holding its 49th Annual Show from March 17-20, 2013 at Hilton Anatole, Dallas.

Mr. Singh will be one of the speakers of the SPECS Program track called “Facilities”. Together with the executives from H-E-B, the discussion on the Facilities Track aims to review the benefits of implementing computer based asset management program and will also stress the importance of efficiency in the process of management, ensuring that it is not the equipment which end up managing people but should be the other way around.
