Efficiency and usability, CAREL’s solutions for natural refrigerants

To reduce the contribution of human activities to the greenhouse effect, businesses, governments, associations and academia need to team up to lay down concrete common agreements. 
The changeover to refrigerants with a low GWP (Global Warming Potential) is proving to be a positive step in this direction.
Research done at CAREL has led to the development of complete solutions for optimum control of refrigeration applications that use CO₂ as the refrigerant. These technologically-advanced solutions manage the inherent complexities of these systems, such as high pressure, cooling capacity and the need to guarantee efficiency in different climates. By using CAREL’s solutions, customers can achieve significant improvements in terms of energy efficiency - up to 25% - compared to a non-natural refrigerant system, thus overcoming the barrier known as the CO₂ equator.

At ATMOsphere America, Nicola Pieretti, Application Manager, will be presenting CAREL’s transcritical CO₂ solution for all store sizes. Based on data from the American market, Pieretti will outline how the substantial changeover to natural refrigerants has brought about a progressive adaptation in technology, which now offers an efficient response even for larger systems. 
Wide-scale availability, sustainability and ease of use are the main features that have led to the success of CAREL’s solutions: control systems designed to maximise efficiency and usability.

As stated Alessandro Greggio, Group Head of Marketing, at Accelerate Europe ”we are now in the era of CO₂ industrialisation. We need to very pragmatically convey the message that we are no longer in the era of CO₂ technical pioneering but rather its industrial implementation. […] CAREL is working actively on technology for food retail refrigeration systems with CO₂ booster compressor racks. We are also putting a lot of effort into developing the required skills, through training courses (internal and external), but also and above all with easily usable and intuitive control systems”.
