Documented energy progress
Better scheduling.
A lower observed peak.
This fictional example shows how staggered defrost cycles could reduce overlapping loads. Temperature requirements and equipment suitability must be checked by a refrigeration specialist.
What the record covers
One Vancouver site, electricity peak demand and supplied interval records. The comparison does not fully control for weather, throughput or operational changes. It is not a claim of annual savings or carbon neutrality.
Method & comparison periods
Monthly maxima are averaged within each three-month period: January–March 2026 (92 kW) and April–June 2026 (78 kW). The 14 kW difference is observed, not a normalized or causal savings estimate. All readings are illustrative.
Approved action summary · sample
Defrost starts were staggered to reduce coincident loads. A real project requires equipment-specific checks, temperature monitoring and a qualified refrigeration specialist's approval.
