Seed to Table’s refrigeration system helps the store deal with the substantial humidity of the Sunshine State while operating in high ambient temperatures.
The food retailer, which installed the first transcritical CO2 system in a U.S. supermarket, is now deploying one of the first in a U.S. retail warehouse.
The 4 MW (1,137 TR) system was installed at a meat processing facility earlier this year.
Harrison Horning explains how Hannaford Supermarkets’ transcritical CO2 systems are faring – and his plans for additional retrofits.
Last December, U.S. retailer Hannaford began orchestrating its first CO2 transcritical retrofit.
Whole Foods, Target, Hannaford Supermarkets and even the US Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) have ramped up their natref use.
San Francisco-based EOS Climate has expanded its carbon-credits programme to allow supermarkets to earn carbon credits by installing newly manufactured, advanced refrigeration systems – such as natural refrigerant solutions – either as complete replacements of HCFC- or HFC-based equipment, or as installations in new facilities.
This December, Hannaford Supermarkets, a division of Ahold Delhaize, will begin installing a transcritical CO2 refrigeration system in an existing store in Raymond, New Hampshire, its first such retrofit project and one of only a few in the United States.
Food Lion, a Salisbury, N.C.-based division of Delhaize America that runs more than 1,100 stores in the southeastern US, has earned the US Environmental Protection Agency’s 2015 platinum-level GreenChill Store Certification at a new store located in Southport, N.C.
