BENEFITS

Move energy use off-peak and see the savings add up.

Take control of peak demand and cooling costs. With TVA EnergyRight, you get expert guidance and incentives to make thermal storage upgrades work for your facility. Incentives subject to pre-approval and availability.

Use energy on your terms — not the grid’s.

Thermal ice storage shifts energy use to off-peak hours, helping you lower demand charges and run more efficiently with better control over when and how your facility uses energy.

Make progress on sustainability without overhauling everything.

By reducing peak demand and optimizing cooling loads, thermal storage helps cut emissions while supporting practical, cost-conscious ESG goals.

Stay ahead of seasonal demand swings.

Cooling needs change throughout the year. Thermal storage helps smooth out those spikes, keeping energy use more predictable and easier to manage.

Work with the grid — and get rewarded for it.

Thermal storage pairs naturally with Demand Response programs, helping you reduce load during critical periods and turn smarter energy use into real financial benefits.
REQUIREMENTS

Thermal ice storage incentive eligibility and requirements.
