Simulating refrigeration systems for rising temperatures and a Net Zero society.

Résumé

Due to climate change, existing refrigeration systems will be pressed to operate beyond their design envelope while new system designs must account for wider design envelopes. To understand the growing risk and energy consumption for refrigeration systems, this paper presents the findings of several works projecting global trends in population growth, human development index (HDI) and climate change along five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), and how these separate disciplines impact the demand for refrigerated services. A methodology for approximating a country’s refrigerated storage capacity from the HDI value has been developed and presented in this paper. A globally applicable R-744 refrigeration system was simulated and used as a benchmark to approximate the global energy consumption required to support the evolving demand on refrigeration storage capacity throughout the 21st century. An assessment of the solar energy potential available from the expanding refrigeration storage capacity has been discussed and presented, highlighting an opportunity to offset the sector’s energy consumption and by extension, support the global transition to Net Zero society. The collated datasets detail the changes at national levels but have been presented at a global scale. The finding of this paper will provide global to national insight on how refrigeration storage will change by the end of the 21st century for the benefit of policymakers and cold chain expansion strategies.
