Solstice® ze Refrigerant used in cascade with carbon dioxide reduces energy consumption by an estimated 35 percent with overall global warming potential of less than 1 PARMA, Italy, Feb. 22, 2016 – Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced that its energy-efficient, ultra-low-global-warming-potential Solstice® ze refrigerant is being used in a unique new supermarket application that combines several systems to improve energy efficiency. Solstice ze is being combined with carbon dioxide, also known as R-744, in a new supermarket cascade system designed to deliver heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration in one comprehensive, low-carbon solution. Italy-based refrigeration specialist Tecnologie del freddo (TDF), worked with Honeywell to design a Solstice ze and R-744 cascade system capable of satisfying all of the cooling, heating and air conditioning needs for a new Unes/U2 supermarket in Parma, Italy. This solution replaces conventional boiler and air conditioning units, using a heat exchanger to capture the energy generated by the Solstice ze cooling system to heat the store, provide hot water, and cool the store in the summer. This highly efficient system is expected to reduce power supply by 45kW and achieve energy savings of approximately 35 percent per year compared with stores with three separate cooling, heating and air conditioning systems. “The new cascade system in our Parma supermarket drives the entire cooling, heating and air conditioning needs of the store at reduced cost and is a template for lower carbon emissions and more sustainable solution for our sector. It also future-proofs our investment beyond the change in F-Gas Regulation,” said Dr. Gianfranco Iannace, Arch. Fabio Gabanella, Unes Supermarket. As a result of the new installation, the Parma U2 store will be able to reduce capital outlay and energy costs due to both to efficiency of the cooling system and its ability to drive heating and air conditioning at the store. The municipality of Parma is interested in assessing the environmental benefits of the installation as an example of best practice for stores across the region. “Supermarket owners are looking for solutions like Honeywell’s Solstice ze to allow them to operate their system beyond 2020 in compliance with upcoming changes in F-Gas regulation,” said Robert Kebby, global marketing manager of commercial refrigeration at Honeywell Fluorine Products. “We anticipate that many design innovations linked to the use of Solstice ze will arise as customers seek out the right solutions for the supermarket sector that meet their environmental and operational requirements.” Solstice ze is non-ozone-depleting, has a global warming potential of less than 1 and complies with the European F-Gas regulation which is designed to reduce the global warming impacts of fluorinated refrigerants and other materials. It also benefits from being mildly flammable according to ASHRAE class 2L and being nonflammable below 30°C. Solstice ze is safer in use than alternatives such as hydrocarbons and ammonia, which are either extremely flammable or highly toxic.
