Jeffrey Gingras from Systemes LMP starts his presentation by providing a SWOT analysis of the market for CO₂ technology. Gringras analyses the evolution of the use of both CO₂ transcritical and CO₂ cascade stores, also looking at prices compared to R404 and R22. Systemes LMP has a long track record of working with CO₂, having developed their first CO₂ cascade system in 2009 and their first transcritical system in 2013.

About the speaker(s)

Jeffrey Gingras

 

Jeffrey Gingras, Vice president of Systemes LMP, has been involved in finding environmentally friendly solutions for supermarkets and warehouses since 1998. Through his understanding of the market trends in the refrigeration industry, Jeffrey aligned Systemes LMP in a more sustainable and environmentally conscious refrigeration product development. In 2000, the company introduced its first pumping station with a fluid cooler and heat reclaim in a Sobeys supermarket. It was the company’s first experience trying to reduce the quantity of HCFC in a refrigeration system, as it was clear within the industry that the step towards such new technologies was inevitable.

Jeff was also involved with Systemes LMP's introduction of it`s solution for medium temperature using ice slurry in 2002, a system, ideal for retrofit installations, using latent heat to extract energy in the evaporators from the air. He also played a role in Systemes LMP’s decision to build its own testing facility to develop a solution for low temperature applications. Here, solutions for various applications using cascade, subcritical & transcritical CO₂ were developed. Jeff is proud to say that Systemes LMP has developed one of the most energy efficient transcritical solutions on the market, with the flexibility for installation in most climates and energy efficiency due to its lubrication technology & mechanical subcooling.
