Retrofit Suggestions for Energy Efficient Warehouse Facilities

Introduction
UK warehousing facilities can reduce energy costs by over 200million p.a. via effective energy efficiency measures and retrofit opportunities. Discovery the major saving opportunities for your business, most of which can have a payback on investment in under 3 years.

Typical barriers to energy efficiency

Staff expertise Time resource Availability of capital funding Overcome these issues using outsourcing energy management provider. They monitor, identify and address energy wastage cost-effectively - carbonmanager365. Availability of capital funding is no longer a barrier to project implementation. Energy Performance Contacting generate guaranteed savings and accelerate energy reduction with no upfront capital requirement.

IT , 1%

Fans and pumps, 1%

Space heating - gas oil, 12%

Warehouse lighting, 65%

Where is energy consumed Focus areas - lighting and heating

Switching to a natural-lighting or task-lighting--where lights are only used in areas where visibility is crucial-- can reduce consumption.

Reduce Usage with Task Lighting

Solar pipes are made-up of highly reflective material, and can channel natural light into the warehouse.

Introduce Naturally-Lit Solar Pipes

Achieve 70 per cent performance improvement over conventional systems with T5/T8 fluorescent & LEDs, occupancy sensors and wireless control via your existing BMS

Install intelligent energy efficient lighting

Sensors reduce lighting when facilities aren't in use, or when facilities already receive ample natural lighting.

Install Wireless Lighting Sensors

Wirelessly integrate HVAC-R to occupancy and temperature sensors to link energy consumption to warehouse use, not set timers

Integrate wireless movement and temp sensors with lighting & HVAC

Wireless sensors that integrate into your BMS can help regulate and measure the warehouse temperature to create seasonal control patterns and reduce cooling/heating cycles.

Utilize intelligent thermostats

Large, slow-moving fans, or smaller, quicker fans can destratify the air in a warehouse-mixing the warm air and reducing the amount of energy necessary to heat a facility in cooler climates.

Invest in Destratification Fans

On average, 20% of warehouse energy costs are wasted from poor efficiency. Envido provides cost-effective energy management support to identify saving opportunities via its carbonmanager365 service.

Energy monitoring and control

Insulation can greatly reduce warehouses' HVAC energy usage, as it has twice the R-value as batt insulation.

Install Sprayed-Foam Insulation Insulate, Insulate, Insulate

Consider implementing several retrofits via an EPC to deliver guaranteed savings with no upfront costs. Self-financing projects harness future energy savings

Retrofit using no upfront finance via Energy Performance Contracting
