Full Description

Building air-conditioning systems are the single greatest contributor to aggregate peak electrical demand. As a technology, thermal energy storage enables shifting a significant proportion of a facilitys demand for electricity from daytime to nighttime periods. Furthermore, thermal energy storage enables flexibility in the demand for electricity by building air-conditioning systemsprincipally operating during time periods where renewable energy is plentiful and idling during time periods where renewable energy is sparse or unavailable. Through this course, participants will come to understand how thermal energy storage can enable greater use of renewable energy generation and learn whether an existing or new facility may benefit from the application of a thermal energy storage system.
