Energy solutions for food processing, distribution and cold storage
Food processors, distributors and cold-storage operators need reliable power, precise temperature control and efficient refrigeration. ecojiva delivers integrated energy solutions that protect your product, your margins and your customers.
Food Processing & Cold Storage
Key energy challenges
24/7 operations
Refrigerated and frozen storage, processing lines and distribution run continuously with no tolerance for temperature excursions.
Reliability critical
An outage of hours can mean a loss of inventory, product recalls and missed customer commitments.
Refrigeration intensive
Compressor racks, condensers, evaporators and blast cells are the dominant electrical loads.
High demand & peaks
Processing shifts, defrost cycles and dock activity stack on top of refrigeration to set the monthly peak.
Cost pressure
Energy is one of the top three operating costs in cold storage, and Midwest and Northeast utilities are raising demand charges every rate case.
Regulatory compliance
FSMA preventive controls under 21 CFR Part 117, the Sanitary Transportation rule and customer audits (SQF, BRCGS) require documented temperature control.
Integrated solutions

Questions from food processing & cold storage operators
What savings are typical for cold storage?
Refrigeration-dominated sites see some of the largest demand-charge reductions from ecoSEMS because compressor and defrost coincidence is highly controllable. Combined with rooftop solar, total bill reductions of 25–32% are consistent with ecoSEMS deployments.
Do you work with our refrigeration contractor?
Yes. ecoSEMS integrates with the refrigeration control system already in place and we coordinate control limits with your refrigeration contractor and quality team.
