Are you controlling your energy management system, or is it controlling you?
An energy management system (EMS) is a fundamental element in the design of an efficient, sustainable, value-adding building. By considering energy management in the design phase for any facility, organizations can count on many benefits including drastic reduction in unnecessary energy consumption, especially during off-hours and low or non-occupancy periods. High performance energy management strategy also includes considerations for especially demanding seasonal periods, and the prioritization of lighting, heating, cooling and building automation systems. To get started, let the energy management system design experts of R3 Retail Development work with you to identify the energy savings opportunities waiting for discovery at your building or multi-site enterprise.
We will work with you to establish an energy management system design prototype to target all locations. Our initial design process begins by working with your design team to select the proper equipment and control features to be implemented. We’ll also review all architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and refrigeration plans to design a fully integrated system controlling equipment efficiency and optimizing energy consumption.
An expert level energy management system will be designed to operate the building with minimal user involvement, and will proactively identify maintenance tasks needed before they become costly repairs, but we don’t stop there.
Our skilled experts will also prepare an overall controls system design and construction documents including specification of an EMS Control Panel (ECP), Refrigeration Alarm Panel (RAP), Lighting Control Panel (LCP) and HVAC Controls. We’ll coordinate with your Architect, MEP Engineers, and General Contractor to meet controls objectives.
We can supply and install any of the controls equipment needed as well as work with controls that come preinstalled on your equipment. We never stop short, always providing final programming, system commissioning and system training for the building Owner and operating personnel.
Don’t wait until after your building construction project to consider implementing the cost-saving benefits of an effective energy management system. Contact the energy efficiency experts of R3 Retail Development today.

Are you confident that you are getting a non-biased refrigeration system design, or is your equipment supplier also providing your design and shop drawings?
In most situations, buyers purchase their equipment and design directly from the equipment manufacturer. At the surface, this seems efficient and reasonable, but it often places the buyer at a disadvantage by not having a true advocate.
As a neutral party, we will work with you to uncover the unique refrigeration needs of your operation, considering an appropriate budget as well as your desired end results to create a strategic, custom refrigeration system design that will maximize value for your enterprise. It is because of this non-biased design that you are then able to request quotes from several manufacturers with total confidence.
Rest assured, our service does not stop with a completed design. The refrigeration system design experts of R3 Retail Development will also take the lead in presenting the design and requirements to the engineering and construction team, assuming the responsibility of providing information and clarifications as needed, freeing you to do what you do best – focus on the health of your day-to-day business.
