Summary

Local and municipal organizations have recently been trying many types of projects that utilize snow and ice for cold heat energy. The city of Sapporo used the Toshinkita Snow Melting Tank to develop a cold heat energy supply system that began full certified operation in 2003. In the field of air-conditioning on the other hand, the Takasago Thermal Engineering Co., Ltd. placed a dynamic-type ice storage system using supercooled water on the market. This system has been installed in many facilities and since 1968 has achieved a total capacity of 35 200 kW (10 000 USRt). Takasago Thermal Engineering also developed a simulation program as a design tool for the ice storage tank.
