Systems, apparatus, and methods are provided for controlling and optimizing energy used by a cold storage unit, controlling and optimizing the interaction of the various component systems within the cold storage unit, and in managing the interaction between the cold storage units, lighting, and HVAC and both consumers and various other entities and third parties. In general, the invention includes various controllers, sensors, network interfaces, and networks which enable data capture, control, and reporting on cooling systems or units, lighting systems, fan systems, dehumidifiers, heat exchanges, and related component systems. Further, the invention captures, tracks, and reports on data for entities that interact with it, e.g., RFID tagged products, advertisements and notices, shopping carts, pallet jacks, and fork lifts. The invention also includes advancements to some of the specific component systems related to cold storage units, e.g., lighting systems, which provide for enhanced energy optimization and control of the unified system. |
