Danfoss to establish an IoT collaboration with Microsoft

Danfoss has entered into a collaboration with Microsoft to bring domain expertise in Refrigeration and HVAC to the cloud. Through this collaboration customers will benefit from long-standing industry knowledge on a new platform powered by Microsoft Azure. The new cloud services will enable major savings, operational efficiency and can further increase sales effectiveness for Refrigeration and HVAC system owners and professionals.

Accelerating the digital transformation
With this collaboration, Danfoss extends its application expertise and becomes a recognized independent software vendor (ISV). Together, Danfoss and Microsoft will bring modern technology and domain expertise to Refrigeration and HVAC system owners and professionals.

The cloud-based services will enable food retailers to reduce food loss, reduce energy consumption and optimize overall store performance. They will benefit from Danfoss’ 80+ years of experience as a solution provider in refrigeration and HVAC. The cloud infrastructure of Microsoft™ Azure will provide scalability and data security.

IoT makes business operation simple, efficient, and more effective
For food retail stores today, operations are getting increasingly complex. Staying compliant as well as reducing food loss requires a lot of manual work. Ensuring that refrigeration, lighting, HVAC etc. run efficiently can be time-consuming and often requires specialist knowledge. With more assets getting integrated with renewable energy, e-mobility, and decentral energy systems on the rise, new potential but also complexity is introduced for Food Retailers. The result can be that stores end up spending more time and energy to run daily operations.

The Danfoss Cooling Cloud Suite enables full transparency around the clock allowing Food Retailers to focus on the core of their business. The cloud-based services increase operational efficiency by processing and analyzing data from refrigeration assets, HVAC, lighting and other assets. The data is managed in a secure way and delivers valuable insight to the food retail store in easy to use user interfaces.

We look forward to showcasing our cloud-based solutions at Euroshop in Düsseldorf, Germany February 2020.
