The industry in China mainly consumes petroleum products. Statistics on China’s logistics energy
consumption from 1990 to 2010 shows that energy consumed in logistics has been increasing. There
exist problems, such as backward facilities and technology, unsound management, high empty-load
rate and low full-load rate, repeat operations, etc. These all caused a serious energy waste. Take
Cold-Storage as an example, the chill system consumes the 80% of the total energy. Statistics shows
that the chill system consumes 15% of the nation’s electric power use, and the Cold-Storages from the
cold-chain industry also takes a large portion. In the cold storage cost, the chill power cost takes over
25%, so the reduction of cost mainly depends on the efficient use of energy (Montanari R.2008, Shen
Shaoji, 2012).
