Should standard commercial freezer temperatures in food establishments be changed and made warmer? Read more here. frozenisfrozen.com
With 1.5 billion commercial freezers worldwide, a change in freezer temperature standards for commercial food establishments in countries with a sophisticated cold chain allows businesses to save money and reduce their climate impact. Read more: frozenisfrozen.com
Frozen is frozen. When food is frozen, all pathenogenic bacteria are inert. Read more here: frozenisfrozen.com
If you are in the restaurant business and keeping your frozen food for 1-2 weeks only, keep your freezer at up to -12°C to save about 20% on your freezer electricity costs while ensuring continued food safety. frozenisfrozen.com
To ensure high food quality, it's important to keep sensitive foods such as ice cream at -18°C or colder. frozenisfrozen.com
The results of this temperature modification study resulted in a cumulative energy savings of 36.8 kWh per day, resulting in demonstrable energy savings for a relatively small temperature adjustment. Read more about the study methodology here. frozenisfrozen.com
This findings of this study supported a new policy change in Ontario's freezer temperature regulation policies, and offer a strong basis for other jurisdictions in Canada and the United States to examine this and similar opportunities. frozenisfrozen.com
This research project measured temperature and energy usage in 30 commercial freezers. Now, as of July 1st, a legislation change will allow a more flexible freezer temperature set-point for businesses and offer measurable energy savings in Ontario. frozenisfrozen.com
In this recent freezer temperature research study, which looked at the impact of a standard freezer temperature adjustment of 3°C from -18°C to -15°C, food safety and quality impacts were given serious consideration. frozenisfrozen.com
Thanks to @ORHMA for supporting the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care to update the food code. Changes allowing commercial food establishments to keep food in a "frozen state" vs. -18°C will lead to huge electricity savings and combat climate change. frozenisfrozen.com
Research supported by the IESO's Conservation Fund (@IESO_Tweets), Toronto Public Health (@TOPublicHealth), @ORHMA, and @TorontoHydro has helped facilitate a change in provincial food code regulations, helping reduce electricity use in the province. frozenisfrozen.com
Until now, Ontario’s food industry regulations dictated that frozen foods must be stored at a temperature of -18°C or lower in commercial food establishments. A recent study shows this freezer temperature set-point was lower than necessary. Read more: frozenisfrozen.com
The findings of this study have helped facilitate a regulation change in the standard temperature set-point for commercial freezers in Ontario. This temperature adjustment will not compromise food safety, and will result in immediate energy savings. frozenisfrozen.com
This study showcases the dramatic link between commercial freezer temperature and energy usage. Raising the temperature of 30 freezers by just 3°C for four weeks saved a cumulative total of 36.8 kWh daily—an average of 10% per freezer. frozenisfrozen.com
The Freezer Temperature Project measured temperature and electricity use of 30 commercial freezers throughout Toronto, adjusting temperatures halfway through the study by 3°C to measure potential energy savings. Read about the results here. frozenisfrozen.com
Most commercial food establishments hold and use frozen food within 1-2 weeks. Raising commercial freezer temperatures by just 3 degrees to -15°C would have no effect on food safety, and would reduce electricity use by an average of 10% per freezer. frozenisfrozen.com
Following this recent freezer temperature research project, no participating business owners expressed concerns about a change in the standard temperature set-point. Now Ontario is making a much-needed change to regulation. Read more here: frozenisfrozen.com
The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care has modified the food code for the first time since the late 1960's. This change will save businesses money, help reduce peak electricity demand, and support efforts on climate change. frozenisfrozen.com
In this research study, internal temperatures were adjusted in 30 commercial freezers in Toronto by 3°C, from -18°C to -15°C, resulting in an average energy reduction of over 10% per freezer. frozenisfrozen.com
This recent study supports regulation changing the mandatory temperature set-point of commercial freezers in Ontario from -18°C to "frozen state". Warmer freezer temperatures will save energy and reduce costs for businesses while preserving food safety. frozenisfrozen.com
