Current retail practices dictate that significant energy has to be consumed in lighting, heating, cooling and ventilating shopping areas. This has resulted in massive increases in energy consumption by retailers. Food products in open topped freezer boxes absorb significant energy costs – keeping the product at sub zero and the ambient temperature at a comfortable 18 °C – it is an impossible task and you will consume and waste masses of energy trying to do it.
Careful design and planning of lighting, heating, cooling and ventilation systems will ensure optimisation of the retail experience, while also ensuring energy costs are kept to an absolute minimum.
By training personnel on energy consumption of retailing areas, energy costs can be significantly reduced.
