Case Study: Long Clawson Dairy achieves 24% refrigeration electricity reduction with Carbon Desktop

24% reduction in energy consumption. Savings verified and equipment optimised

Long Clawson Dairy, a traditional British cheese producer, faced a challenge with its refrigeration compressors not running at peak performance, leading to excessive electricity consumption. The company used the Carbon Desktop platform, specifically its regression analysis facility, to investigate the issue.

Using Carbon Desktop to monitor energy use against temperature and production data, the site's manager identified non-optimal compressor settings. He then used the software as a measurement tool to conduct trials and establish new, optimum settings. The Carbon Desktop solution led to a 24% reduction in refrigeration energy use, resulting in significant financial savings for the dairy.
