NRM Success Story
The Market Place
Western MA
The Market Place's multiple locations have slashed their combined electric bill by roughly $2,500 per year. By year 10 of having NRM's solution, they will have saved over $20,000 in profits that otherwise would've been spent on energy costs.
While we have many large customers who rely on our comprehensive monitoring platform to protect their facility’s worth of perishable products, our small business customers, like David Renner and The Market Place in Western Mass., are usually most excited about the energy-efficiency measures and smart refrigeration controls.
And for good reason—these trusted, proven measures provide long-term reductions in both run times (which extends the life of the equipment) and energy usage (which puts money back in your pocket). In David’s case, this meant focusing on evaporator fansets that ran 100% of the time, anti-sweat door heaters that ran 100% of the time, and old, inefficient fan motors.
Now, on average, David’s refrigeration systems—which are spread amongst 4 different walk-in coolers—are running 50-70% less than before smart controls were installed without sacrificing temperatures or product safety.
As a bonus, David’s new controls and equipment upgrades qualified for utility-paid incentives through the Mass Save program!

"The whole process was very smooth. I have noticed that my evaporator fans are cycling on and off, so I can actually see it saving energy."
