Chilled-water storage in Western Australia.

Summary

Chilled-water storage has been in use in Western Australia for more than a decade and is recognized there as a valuable complement to chilled water systems serving campuses and other large loads. Factors affecting the application of thermal storage in Western Australia are discussed. Characteristics of four chilled-water systems in or near Perth, the capital city, are described. Comparisons are drawn between conditions and practices in Australia and the United States. The success of chilled-water storage projects in Western Australia without demand-side management incentives demonstrates its intrinsic benefits when appropriately applied.
