Le nouvelle ère glaciaire pour le refroidissement.

La nuova era del ghiaccio per il raffreddamento.

Auteurs : ROAF S.

Résumé

The ability to keep buildings, people, goods, food and beverages cold is a vital requirement for many sectors of our global economy. In the 20th we were able to rely on the miracle of cheap fossil fuel electricity to provide that cold but long before then the cold of the winter months was captured and transported across the seasons, and the oceans, to provide similar services using natural ice, that if well stored could last for months and years. The growing environmental imperatives in the 21st century are making building designers once more turn to this extraordinary substance in the drive for ever more sustainable buildings. Humanity now faces major environmental challenges associated with having more people on the planet, fewer resources per person and a changing climate. These powerful trends are growing in scale, impacts and importance. This article is structured to begin with a brief review with four main environmental drivers on the way in which we currently design and service buildings and concludes that energy storage will be increasingly important in the future, and that ice can be used effectively as the medium for that storage.
