Comparisons of Energy Consumption for Refrigeration in Supermarkets

Abstract
A comparison has been made between the energy consumption for the cooling equipment in 2 super- markets based on HFC and 2 so called cascade systems based on HFC in the high temperature part and CO₂ in the low temperature part. The results show, that the energy consumption is the same for the 2 different systems. However, It is underlined that there are great potential for improvements in the energy consumption for the cascade systems, as these are 1. generation systems.
