挑战
Cloverleaf Cold Storage, a large cold storage warehouse company, was facing challenges with their incumbent HID lamps in their 24/7 facility. The heat generated from these lamps was causing issues in the cold storage freezers, as the facility team had to compensate for the heat to maintain optimal temperatures. Additionally, the company was looking to improve the lighting in their facility to create a safer environment for their employees. They were also interested in integrating an advanced control system for monitoring.
关于客户
Cloverleaf Cold Storage is a company that has been offering public and contract storage in refrigerated, frozen, and dry environments for over 60 years. They are the 11th largest cold storage warehouse company in the world and the 8th largest in North America. The company operates 21 facilities throughout North America. The Columbus, OH location, which is the focus of this case study, is a 300,000 square foot cold storage warehouse. The company operates 24/7 and was looking to reduce energy consumption, improve lighting, and integrate an advanced control system for monitoring.
解决方案
To address the challenges, Cloverleaf Cold Storage, with the assistance of Keen Technical Solutions, an ESCO company, decided to upgrade their lighting system. They selected the Flex Lighting Solutions Essential Series LED high bays with an integrated control system. The Essential Series 4.0 LED high bay is rated for ambient operating temperatures ranging from minimum -40°C (-40°F) to maximum 65°C (149°F), making it suitable for the cold storage application. The LED high bays feature rotatable outer modules to optimize the light distribution and provide flexibility for any application. This allowed Cloverleaf to properly illuminate both the aisles and racking areas within their facility. The control system installed throughout the facility allowed managers to monitor and control the system, contributing to immediate energy savings.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
