Case Study — Pulau Indah, Port Klang

Bonded Cold Store Facility, Pulau Indah
RM218,400 Annual Savings

A 250 kWp solar + BESS system deployed at a 40,000 sq ft bonded cold store serving FMCG clients. The Solar BESS controller predicts compressor startup sequences and discharges battery power to keep MD charges below the threshold — saving RM8,300/month on demand charges alone.

Thermal Load Matching

Refrigeration load peaks perfectly correlate with solar generation. The hotter the day, the more solar power is available to run your chillers.

  • Solar output matched to compressor load profile
  • BESS absorbs startup current spikes

Why F&B & Cold Chain Operators Choose Trexon

Engineered for the demanding 24/7 cooling loads of food and logistics infrastructure.

Chiller Load Synchronization

Solar output is naturally correlated with refrigeration demand. Our BESS controllers predict compressor start cycles and smooth out MD spikes in real-time.

Food Safety Redundancy

On-site generation adds grid independence for critical cold chain assets. BESS backup maintains cooling during localized grid faults, protecting inventory.

Green Retail Supply Chain

Nestlé, AEON, Tesco, and other major FMCG retailers mandate green logistics partners. Trexon provides verifiable Scope 2 data for your sustainability reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from F&B plant managers and cold storage operators.

Why is solar particularly effective for cold chain and refrigeration facilities?
Refrigeration load and solar generation are naturally synchronized. As ambient temperature rises during daylight hours, your chillers work harder — and your solar panels produce more power to meet that exact demand. This thermal correlation means cold chain facilities typically achieve 35–45% bill reduction, higher than most industries.
What is peak shaving and how does it reduce my TNB bill?
Under TNB E2/E3 tariff, your Maximum Demand charge is RM97.06/kW based on the highest 30-minute demand reading in the month. Industrial chillers and compressors create massive startup spikes. A solar + BESS system "cushions" these spikes in real-time, keeping you below your MD threshold and eliminating the penalty.
Does solar affect food safety or cold chain integrity?
No. Our systems are grid-tied and operate in parallel with TNB supply. On-site generation adds a layer of redundancy — in the event of a localized grid fault, the solar + BESS system can maintain critical refrigeration loads for several hours, protecting your inventory. Full battery backup systems are available for higher uptime requirements.
How does GITA work for F&B manufacturers and cold storage operators?
Under GITA, 60% of qualifying solar capex is deducted from statutory income. For a RM550K (250 kWp) system, that is RM330,000 deducted from taxable income — saving RM79,200 in corporate tax (at 24% rate). The system must be commissioned and verified by SEDA/MIDA by December 31, 2026.
Can Trexon help with Nestlé, AEON, or Tesco green supplier requirements?
Yes. Major retailers and FMCG principals now mandate green logistics and sustainability reporting from their supply chain partners. Trexon provides third-party verified REC certificates and GHG Scope 2 carbon data feeds compatible with CDP, GRI, and retail ESG audit frameworks.
