Summary

The designers adopted dynamic ice thermal storage through the building, and developed and adopted the decentralized and dedicated climate control system applying the principle of natural refrigerant circulation. As expected, they had the following principal results: a 2,250 kilowatt reduction in peak demand for electricity; a 75% annual transfer ratio of off-peak night-time power service for thermal storage; 6.21 yen/Mcal as a unit cost of heat. The paper reports the climate control system from the developing and planning process to actual operating results.
