The working principle of an ice storage system calls for chillers to make ice inside storage tanks during off-peak, nighttime hours when the energy is produced more efficiently and economically. Ice Storage uses the stored “thermal” energy of the ice to cool the buildings during the daytime peak-usage periods. This effectively shifts the electrical load off-peak, while avoiding higher-price energy. Over 4,000 businesses and institutions in over 50 countries rely on CALMAC’s thermal energy storage to cool their buildings.
