Tesco is partnering with Aerofoil Energy as it looks to transform the performance of refrigeration cabinets in its stores via the application of Formula One-derived aerodynamics.
In addition to installing Aerofoils in its supermarkets throughout the UK and Ireland, Tesco will also adopt Aerofoil Energy’s Vortex future-fridge technology, which it says will deliver energy and carbon emissions savings to rival that of fridges with glass doors.
Paul McAndrew of Aerofoil Energy says: “Rolling out Aerofoils across an estate the size of Tesco’s will have a tangible impact on energy consumption at a national level and confirms Aerofoil Energy as the number one choice for shelf-edge technology. But that’s only half the story – adopting our Vortex technology for Tesco’s newbuild cabinets will set a new standard for energy and temperature performance in supermarket refrigeration generally.”
Craig Wilson, Managing Director at Williams Advanced Engineering, comments: “Our mission is to deliver inspired engineering for a sustainable future and it is great news to see the adoption of this technology by such a respected global retailer.”
