Optimization, monitoring, and maintenance of cooling technology

Optimization, monitoring, and maintenance of cooling technology

Neglecting the optimization, monitoring, and maintenance of cooling equipment such as air conditioners and refrigerators results in increased energy use, lower cooling performance, and shortens equipment life. Effective optimization, monitoring, and maintenance of cooling equipment could deliver substantial electricity savings, particularly if equipment has not been maintained for a long time.

This knowledge brief outlines the need for maintaining and servicing cooling technology and estimates the impact of better optimization, monitoring, and maintenance of cooling equipment.
