An energy audit recommended installing variable speed control on evaporator fans, replacing T8 cold room lighting with LEDs and a number of options for optimising refrigeration including thermal energy storage. Although the refrigeration projects have a long payback period, the variable speed controls and lighting would save over $7,000 per year with a payback of nearly 4 years. The farmer has decided to implement the lighting upgrades in the cold room, with 1% of total energy savings, around $1,500 per year and emission savings of 5 t CO2-e per annum.
