CAREL, alongside Technoelectric, has successfully assisted Mega Image in implementing the Total-Store system to optimize energy usage across 973 stores in Romania. This innovative system led to a notable 14% reduction in energy consumption.
Total-Store combines refrigeration, HVAC, and lighting technologies to allow for remote, centralised management of energy in both new and existing stores. An evaluation of several stores revealed a decrease in CO2 emissions by 6.39 kilotons, translating to annual savings of approximately €5.3 million.
As part of the Ahold Delhaize group, Mega Image selected CAREL for delivering a scalable, flexible solution that offers real-time monitoring and energy optimisation. Total-Store not only minimizes energy use but also provides features like automatic HACCP reporting and remote diagnostics, streamlining resource management and reducing on-site intervention needs.
Michele Mohorovicich, Marketing Manager Refrigeration – EMEA at CAREL, emphasized the company's commitment to enhancing energy efficiency and lowering environmental impact. This partnership with Technoelectric and Mega Image showcases how centralized technologies can drive sustainable energy solutions.
