Green Technology
IceCOLD® not only reduces your total annual electric bill (of which 40-80% can come from cooling), but for each 1,000 kWh of electricity saved , the U.S. Department of Energy states that 1,341 pounds of CO2 emissions will not be released into the environment.
Consider this example:
One of our corporate customers installed IceCOLD Technology® in 10 modest-sized refrigerated warehouses and subsequently reported an annual CO2 emissions reduction of 960,000 pounds per year.
In this case above, not only were environmental impacts reduced substantially, but this customer saved on the cost of the electricity that would have been wasted, further depleting the planet’s non-replaceable resources.
An estimated 40% of the world’s electricity use is for air conditioning and refrigeration cooling. To reduce that by 10% to 20% would be of great significance. If the billion air conditioners and refrigeration units all had IceCOLD® technology, the global reduction of CO2 emissions would be much impactful. There is no other technology today that can reduce CO2 emissions for such a low cost.
IceCOLD® was awarded honorable mention for a study conducted by the Uptime Institute. The study was conducted in 2012 and focused on data-center energy reduction. IceCOLD® delivered measurable and substantial efficiency gains and energy reduction in data-center cooling equipment, which led to the recognition as an innovative green product for the IT industry.
McDonald’s Australia conducted a 5-year study on 6 locations to test energy efficiency products. After the study was completed, McDonald’s Australia recognized IceCOLD® as a recipient of their “Global Best of Green” for 2012. IceCOLD® demonstrated an average energy efficiency increase of 20% for the duration of the 5-year study.
