Sustainable Retail Refrigeration Book

Sustainable Retail Refrigeration by Alan M. Foster and Judith A. Evans is an excellent resource for manufacturers, managers, and policymakers, as it covers both design and operation. When compared to other parts of the food cold chain, carbon emissions from the retail segment of the food cold chain are relatively high. Food temperature is also less well controlled at the retail and consumer ends of the cold chain, according to studies.

As a result, there is significant opportunity to improve the performance of refrigerated display cabinets and the refrigeration systems that power them in order to reduce carbon emissions and improve food temperature control. Sustainable Retail Refrigeration brings together retail refrigeration experts from around the world. The authors cover the most recent technologies and best current knowledge in the field in a single resource. With rising concerns about energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, retailers are increasingly being held accountable for their actions.
