Thermal storage system

energy-saving Ice Storage System

A system that uses cheap late-night power (23 to 09 o'clock) to store ice in a heat accumulator and use it to cool buildings during the day. (Daytime power usage reduction feature - demand management aspect, Partial cooling is also possible at night)

Problems of existing ice storage system and E-gen Ice Storage system a special feature
Problems of existing ice storage system E-gen Ice Storage system a special feature

- Huge of heat storage tank installation area
- Increased energy consumption due to excessive brine pump power
- Complex control systems (controlled using 3-way valves)

Heat storage tank Minimize footprint
→ 50% less than other ice storage systems

- Patent [Energy-saving ice heat storage system with separate cold storage and cooling pumps]
→Power saving of existing brine pump by separating storage cold storage and cooling pump
→ 30% less energy than other ice storage systems

-Improve the convenience of maintenance
→ Simple on/off automatic control system
