Cold Storage Warehouse Microgrids
Microgrids offer critical power and daily energy cost reductions.
ZAM's Scale a Grid platform includes the design, build-out, as well as a third party covering the upfront capital costs. Your operations just pay a monthly flat fee. Advanced controls optimize on-site distributed energy resources (DERs) and deliver significant competitive advantages for your data center focused exclusively on model training, as well as cold storage sites.
Control your Energy Independence
Gain Leadership Advantage:
The advantages to whoever moves on quickly to deploy a microgrid could be substantial, and the broader opportunity offers a compelling path to rapidly securing key inputs to US AI leadership and Cold Storage facility security.
Smart Controllers save money dispatching grid or on-site sources
Typical operations are powered by combining the use of the utility grid, on-site solar, generators, batteries, or fuel cells. The controller will proactively source between them to save you money.
Power Outage Island Mode
Uninterrupted continuous power is available during power outages, when the microgrid disconnects from the utility and enters Island Mode.
GRID-ENABLED CONTROLER
The microgrid's Smart Controls know when energy costs are highest, proactively switching your energy source and saving capital. When the critical grid load is shut down from the grid during a power outage, your microgrid will kick in and power your refrigerant assets.
Avoid Upfront Capital Costs
Much like Energy Service Agreements (ESAs) and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), the cold storage facility is charged a flat monthly or annual fee for energy services and operations and maintenance of the system. For a flat fee, services include the design, build-out, as well as owning and operating the distributed energy assets to deliver cheaper, cleaner, and more resilient power. No capital down is required. Our goal is to help decarbonize the cold storage industry with Microgrids to take charge of their energy supply and integrate on-site energy assets such as solar and battery storage.
Avoided Emissions
The use of off-grid solar microgrids to meet all expected data center or cold storage growth could result in substantial emissions reductions: between 0.4 billion tons (32 GW ) and 4.1 billion tons (330 GW new data centers and cold storage) of COâ‚‚ emissions avoided between 2026 and 2030.
