Market assessment and updates of Rwanda’s national cooling strategy
In Rwanda, the purchase of household refrigerators and ACs is increasing with economic growth. As part of the national cooling strategy, the country has launched a public awareness campaign on efficient cooling...
Earth-to-air heat exchanger for air conditioning in a Colombian tropical weather
In a recent theoretical study, a passive cooling system using an earth-to-air heat exchanger (EAHE) was modelled for the Colombian tropical weather.
Impact of ageing on the energy efficiency of refrigerating household appliances
A recent study shows an average increase in energy consumption of 11% after 2 years of operation and 27% after 16 years for these appliances. Ageing wall insulation and door gasket contribute to this...
The Australian refrigeration sector: decreased emissions, transition to natural refrigerants and a growing workforce
Released in 2024, the Cold Hard Facts 4 report identifies key developments and emerging trends in the Australian refrigeration and air conditioning industry between 2016 and...
Isochoric freezing could cut down energy use in the global food cold chain
Compared to conventional isobaric freezing, isochoric freezing could significantly improve the quality of frozen food and generate substantial energy savings.
New evaporative cooling system for more energy efficient data centres
A dew point cooling system, which is an indirect evaporative cooling system that approaches the dew point, has reduced the electricity consumption of a UK data centre by 80%.
Energy saving initiatives for cooling in data centres
In January 2021, Europe’s leading cloud and data centre operators signed the Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact, a self-regulatory initiative to become climate neutral by 2030. According to recent studies, free...
