Thermal storage incentive offering
Thermal ice storage systems work with conventional refrigeration equipment to produce cold water or ice. This chilled water or ice is stored in a tank and used to cool your building during peak hours, enabling you to shift electric cooling operations to off-peak hours, saving money and reducing peak demand. Our incentives can help offset your project’s costs and are available at $9.00 per ton hour for partial storage and $11.00 per ton hour for full storage projects.
Thermal Ice Storage Incentive
For most commercial businesses, cooling is the top energy expense, accounting for 40% of peak demand on hot days. You can spend less on energy when you incorporate thermal storage during project design by choosing equipment that is sized right for the job. This may enable your facility to reduce nominal/installed chiller capacity as well as pumps, motors, fans and ductwork in conventional systems.
All projects require pre-approval. DO NOT purchase, remove or install any equipment until all pre-approval requirements are completed, and a formal Application Approval Notice has been received via email.
Detailed energy calculations are required.
Pre- and post-installation inspections may be required.
