New generation digital services for refrigeration and air-conditioning

CAREL, a multinational specialising in control solutions for the air-conditioning, refrigeration and air humidification sectors, announces the launch of RED optimise.

The new generation of digital services designed to improve quality and efficiency in the management of various technologies in retail, industrial, logistics and commercial applications. The platform is innovative in terms of content, technology and interface, making it the ideal solution for controlling systems and cutting operating costs: the main benefits are optimised energy consumption, lower maintenance costs, improved product storage quality and indoor comfort.

A platform that manages the entire system and all connected sites

RED optimise is a web portal for centralised management of multiple sites, bringing together and processing data from every installed system and unit so as to provide valuable information through intuitive dashboards, advanced algorithms and clear messages, as well as suggestions on possible optimisations.

RED optimises sorts and analyses the information based on geo-location, so as to offer a simple and intuitive overview of the managed systems. In this way, in just a few simple steps, all the data from all of the local supervisors can be compared to identify and analyse both problems to be solved and efficient configurations that can be replicated in the other systems, down to the single device level. Indeed through the application of artificial intelligence to transform basic data into valuable information, chains of stores, logistics centres and manufacturers can exploit RED optimise to improve its processes and the quality of their work, through specific reports and analyses.

 IoT to support the sustainability of retail chains

Internets of Things (IoT) solutions have been proven to help food retailers maintain food quality and safety while using as little energy as possible. IoT technology ensures that the right temperatures are maintained for optimal food preservation, both fresh and frozen, reducing waste by up to 40 percent and maximising energy efficiency for the entire cold chain, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, lighting and more.

Reducing energy costs and food waste not only makes the retail world healthy and profitable, but also contributes to building a greener and more sustainable planet. In the last five years alone, IoT solutions have allowed food retailers to save $ 37 million, reducing waste due to incorrect preservation by 40 percent and avoiding over 2 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.

“With RED optimise, CAREL supports its customers in optimising all system management processes and achieving their sustainability targets. Recognition of critical patterns and identification of improvement actions are tasks for a small number of experts when starting from raw data, and require significant commitment in terms of resources and costs”, commented Gabriele Putzolu, IoT Service Business Development Manager.
