PEAK LOAD REDUCTION BY MEANS OF ICE STORAGE SYSTEMS.

Author(s) : BRUNK M. F.

Summary

THE USE OF ICE STORAGE SYSTEMS IN CHILLED WATER CIRCUITS OF AIR CONDITIONING PLANTS CONSIDERABLY CONTRIBUTES TO THE REDUCTION OF ELECTRICITY PEAK DEMANDS. A HIGH-CAPACITY STORAGE SYSTEM GIVES THE COOLING ENERGY PRODUCED DURING THE NIGHT TO THE RESPECTIVE CONSUMERSAT ON-PEAK PERIODS THEREBY SUPPORTING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. THIS ALLOWS TO DESIGN THE REFRIGERATION PLANT FOR APPROXIMATELY 50% OF THE MAXIMUM REQUIRED COOLING CAPACITY ONLY, WHICH, IN TURN INVOLVES REDUCTION OF THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION CAPACITY BY ALMOST 50%.
