Secondary loops for cold distribution and for heat recovery in a Loblaw supermarket .: M39-139/2009E-PDF

"In spring 2004, Loblaw Companies Limited (Loblaw) decided to innovate at their new Loblaws supermarket in Repentigny (QC) by adopting refrigeration technologies and operating practices pioneered and promoted by CanmetENERGY. The refrigeration system installed at this Loblaws store has the capacity to reduce overall energy consumption by about 23% compared to a conventional system, mitigate environmental impacts and enhance food product quality along with client comfort. The refrigerated display cases are cooled by secondary fluids, obviating the need for synthetic refrigerant lines, and the heat normally released to the environment is recovered and used to meet the store’s space heating and hot water needs. This system is the first of its kind in Canada"--Abstract, p. 2.
