Cut energy costs by cooling your facility… at night. Ice storage AC systems generate ice during off-peak hours, storing thermal energy that’s released during the day to cool the building.
How It Works:
- Chillers freeze water in tanks overnight.
- During the day, the system shuts off compressors and melts the ice to provide cooling.
- Shifts 30–70% of daytime cooling load to nighttime.
Why It’s Ideal for Industrial Facilities:
- Cuts Peak Demand Costs: Huge savings in markets with time-of-use pricing.
- Lowers Electrical Load: Reduces stress on equipment.
- Reliable Backup Cooling: Can supplement systems during outages.
Challenges:
- Higher upfront cost
- Requires space for thermal storage tanks
