Summary

This paper describes the smart grid opportunities for a combined heating and refrigeration cycle applied in food retail applications. The potential of adding the flexibility of supermarkets to a smart grid network is outlined as well as the potential of utilisation of unused compressor capacity. In connection with external thermal networks a functional storage opportunity for renewable energy sources like wind is shown viable and backed up by a new case study. The business implications of connecting the supermarket to the district heating are briefly outlined.
