Cold chain facility with refrigeration units

    Capacity review

    Coordinate critical loads

    Keep refrigeration protected while evaluating whether additional electrification fits inside the existing envelope.

    Situation

    Site Constraint Profile

    Cold chain facilities operate high-power refrigeration loads (500 kW–3 MW) that are non-interruptible by FDA/USDA compliance requirements. Electric refrigerated truck fleets add 1–4 MW of charging demand on an already capacity-constrained utility interconnection.

    Constraints

    Constraint Analysis

    Refrigeration loads cannot be modulated, FDA/USDA product compliance requirements

    Electric reefer trucks arriving, compounding demand on fixed utility service

    Utility service upgrade blocked by substation capacity and permitting delays

    Any capacity violation risks product loss and regulatory non-compliance

    Orchestration

    Orchestration Scope

    Youree operates as a site-level orchestration layer, providing absolute protection for refrigeration loads while intelligently scheduling fleet charging within available capacity windows.

    Absolute protection of refrigeration loads, compliance-first priority

    EV fleet charging allocated within available capacity windows

    Compressor cycle anticipation for predictive load balancing

    Real-time capacity monitoring with automated constraint enforcement

    Measured Outcomes

    100%

    cold chain compliance maintained

    85%

    fleet electrification on existing service

    $1.8M

    utility upgrade costs avoided

    Next Step

    If your cold chain facility is approaching its electrical service limits and fleet electrification is adding demand on an already constrained site, the next step is a technical assessment.

    Request a site review

    You will speak directly with a Youree engineer to review refrigeration requirements, fleet schedules, and whether orchestration can enable electrification without compromising cold chain compliance.
