Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / energy-saving device
English term or phrase: no-heat freezer door
Es geht um Energiesparmaßnahmen bei Supermärkten; hier bei Safeway.

Kontext: Safeway`s "Power to Save" program has reduced power bills thanks to lighting retrofits, energy management controls and refrigeration upgrades. The company has added *no-heat freezer doors* that trim electrical heating, and replaced neon lights in exterior signs.
Tesco is experimenting with energy-efficient technologies, the BBC reports. Steps include having doors on refrigerated cases, using energy-efficient light bulbs, and retrieving cold air lost from fridges then reusing it in the air conditioning systems. Reclaiming the cold air alone saves Tesco between 10 and 15 percent of the energy needed to cool the stores, according to BBC.

Es geht also um eine Art "Wiederverwertung" von Energie. Aber wie ist das "no heat" zu verstehen? Die Hitze soll ja irgendwie abgeleitet werden für die "electrical heating".

Bin für Hilfe sehr dankbar!

unbeheizte Türen der Tiefkühlschränke
Explanation:
Amerikanische Türen von Tiefkühlschränken/ Kühlräumen haben üblicherweise integrierte Heizdrähte (elektrisch beheizte Rahmen), die als Isolierung dienen. In diesem Fall sind die Türen heizdrahtfrei, es werden andere Materialien zur Isolierung verwendet.
