Defrosting is optimised and it is possible to increase the temperature regime of the evaporator circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This system applies to supermarkets or grocery stores with chillers and freezers to store food in store. By installing this technology, which has been available on the market for more than 5 years, the company can save on its electricity bills and reduce its carbon footprint. However, implementing this measure can be complex and requires the temporary shutdown of production during the technical installation stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"type-numerotation\"><span class=\"type-numerotation-span visually-hidden\"><\/span>Energy and environmental impact<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Replacing the chillers and freezers leads to direct savings in terms of electrical usage, not regarding the units themselves, but also on the associated refrigeration process. Thanks to better insulation and more efficient defrosting, cold losses are reduced, which reduces the power consumption of refrigeration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Savings on electricity bills are estimated at 80% for freezers and 25% for refrigeration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"type-numerotation\"><span class=\"type-numerotation-span visually-hidden\"><\/span>State subsidy application<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-light-green-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">State subsidies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Please note: any application for government or non-government subsidies must comply with the \u201cincentive effect\u201d, subject to compliance with the subsidy conditions.<\/strong><br>To ensure that the \u2018incentive effect\u2019 is respected, no binding commitment (signing a quotation; paying an advance) may be made BEFORE submitting the application file or receiving the agreement in principle from the State or the electricity and natural gas supplier following an application for subsidies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/guichet.public.lu\/en\/entreprises\/financement-aides\/regime-sme-packages\/soutien-pme\/sme-packages-sustainability.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>SME Packages &#8211; Sustainability<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Financial Aid for small and medium-sized enterprises covering up to 70% of eligible costs for the implementation of a project aimed at reducing the environmental impact.
