Installation, Testing and Monitoring of Electric Thermal Storage Units at FourCommercial/Industrial Sites in New York State

摘要

The report presents the results of an electric thermal storage (ETS)demonstration project. The project's purpose was to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of utilizing unique, low-cost ETS systems to shift the electrical heating loads of commercial and industrial buildings from on-peak to off-peak periods. The four buildings selected as demonstration sites for this project are served by municipal and cooperative utilities (muni/co-ops) that purchase power and energy from the utility.
