BOULDER – A freezer cooling cost-reduction of 65 percent? That’s the kind of savings that could have supermarket owners drooling like a 5-year-old in the ice cream aisle.

And that’s the premise behind new technology being developed by Boulder-based Rebound Technology LLC.
The fledgling company founded in early 2012 by Russell Muren and Kevin Davis recently received a $141,507 Small Business Innovation Research grant from the National Science Foundation to develop its IcePoint commercial refrigeration system. The six-month grant will help Rebound construct and test a 2-kilowatt prototype that could potentially lead to further NSF funding.
