Italy’s largest hypermarket opts for CO2 refrigeration The use of CO2 transcritical refrigeration in warm climates has been a hot topic for many years. The tables are turning, however, and CO2 refrigeration is advancing across Southern Europe as an efficient and viable solution. In April 2016, the largest hypermarket in Italy opened its doors in Milan. The 10,000 m2 brand new Iper Hypermarket is part of the new Arese Shopping Center. Sustainability is a key pillar of the building design. As a LEED Gold certified shopping center, it is designed and constructed to use less water and energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This installation, featuring several hundred cabinets and cold rooms, is a pioneer in CO2 transcritical refrigeration system using ejector technology to enhance efficiency with outdoor temperatures up to 38°C. Danfoss has devised new ways to use the ejector technology in refrigeration applications to increase the energy efficiency of parallel compression. The turnkey refrigeration system is supplied by Arneg.
