EMBRACE THE FUTURE OF
Cold Storage
On-site power using the Scale a Grid platform
OUR MISSION
Zam Energy's Scale a Grid is designed for Cold Storage Operations
Our Scale a Grid platform reduces the cost and environmental impact of energy in a highly flexible, intelligent power platform serving the complex needs of a cold storage operation.
OUR OFFERINGS
We cover all capital costs, design, engineering, construction, as well as operation and maintenance of the Microgrid for a flat fee- based on the PPA finance model.
Leverage
Get bi-directional power at your cold storage facility and lessen the impacts from sudden outages caused by rolling blackouts, cyberattacks and extreme weather events. Revenue can flow back selling excess energy back to the grid and leverage demand response programs to help reduce utility bills without impact operations.
Scale a Grid Platform
A New Era of Cold Storage is driven by smart energy produced on-site.
Decarbonizing operations, and reducing the energy footprint is modeled as your operations grow.
​
Our platform ensures you have bi-directional on-site power generation and energy storage offering independence from the grid – as protection against outages to ensure the highest quality and safety.
Full Service Team of Professionals
Our
Team
We bring a team of microgrid professionals , engineers, data analysts, permitting and construction managers, as well as full financial services to construct, own and operate a microgrid on-site.
Cold Storage Numbers
Growth
Cost of Energy
The cold storage industry has grown steadily at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.3% over the past five years, reaching a total of $8.4 billion.
Energy Use
Standard refrigerator warehouses alone can consume up to 25 to 60 kilowatt-hours per square foot per year, with refrigeration accounting for more than 70 percent of overall electric usage.
Energy costs associated with cold storage rank second only to labor costs and can account for up to 18% of a company's total revenue. As a result, cold storage facilities are always looking for new ways to reduce these significant costs.
Emissions
The cold storage industry, as a whole, can rack up to well over $30 billion each year in energy costs. Refrigeration accounted for nearly 5% of global energy needs, making these technologies alone responsible for 2.5% of total emissions that year.
