James Martin’s Meat Market Fridge
Manchester 235 adds a new dimension to the Casino world by becoming a complete entertainment complex that now includes this new iconic James Martin restaurant.
The restaurant features a menu that favours local and speciality dishes and as such the equipment installed within the restaurant called for something special in terms of presentation and delivery.
The refrigeration demands of any catering facility are usually dealt with at the back of house where the clients will not normally see any of the equipment or systems.
At Manchester 235 this was definitely not the objective as the refrigerated coldroom was to become a key feature within the restaurant. The restaurant required a dry-ageing room in order to provide high quality beef to reflect the demands of the menu.
However the dry-ageing coldroom needed to be visible from the restaurant with a 2mx1.6m window that would allow the meat to be viewed from the restaurant.
Opportunity to Save Significant Amount of Energy
Arguably one of the most straightforward areas where we can reduce energy use is to remove on site duplication of plant.
By this we are referring to the situation where valuable waste heat from a cooling system is rejected from a building but at the same time the building is using fossil fuels to provide space heating or hot water.
This situation can be found in any application from a manufacturing plant to a hotel/restaurant to a standard office building, all these buildings & their operational activity have a significant heating or hot water demand that can be operating alongside an equally significant rejected cooling load.
Basically high value waste heat is rejected from a cooling system within a building or process and at the same time a boiler could be operating in the same building; hence the production of energy is duplicated at very high cost.
Historically the specification of heating and hot water systems has been treated as a completely separate area to the specification of air-conditioning or refrigeration equipment.
Industry agree stretching energy efficiency targets with government
UK Energy Intensive Industries have agreed to commit to stretching energy efficiency improvement targets to 2020 as part of the voluntary Climate Change Agreements (CCA) scheme. This will deliver an overall 11.0% energy efficiency improvement across all industry sectors by 2020 against agreed baselines.
The new Climate Change Agreements scheme started yesterday, and shall provide an extension to the Climate Change Levy rebate for energy intensive industries until 2023 in return for meeting energy efficiency improvement targets. The Environment Agency shall administer the new scheme, providing a simplified and streamlined approach to administration for both Government and Industry.
A total of 51 industrial sectors including steel, aerospace and farming have signed up across 9,000 sites.
