Supplier of ice water energy storage

What are ice storage systems?

Ice Storage Systems. Ice Storage Technology for the Energy Transition The sp.ICE is a modular ice storage system with compact dimensions and very short charging times, making it a high-end product for use as a full-load storage system.

What is ice energy storage?

The building technology company leitec® took a different path: an ice energy storage system provides the necessary energy. WAGO technology controls the interplay among the systems, plus all the building automation. Energy is created when water freezes to form ice.

Who uses ice energy storage technology?

Users of the technology include leitec® Gebäudetechnik GmbH, a full service energy and building technology provider, headquartered in Heilbad Heiligenstadt in Thuringia. Their ice energy storage system, consisting of an underground cement tank ten meters in diameter and six meters deep, holds up to 400,000 liters of water.

What is a SP Ice Ice storage system?

The sp.ICE is a modular ice storage system with compact dimensions and very short charging times, making it a high-end product for use as a full-load storage system. This makes the sp.ICE particularly economical to operate in applications that need to cover peak cooling loads during the day when electricity tariffs are high.

How much water does an ice energy storage system hold?

Their ice energy storage system, consisting of an underground cement tank ten meters in diameter and six meters deep, holds up to 400,000 liters of water. “The system works quite well,” says Bernd Apitz, CEO and owner of leitec®. “We were among the first companies to build an ice energy storage system of this magnitude.”

How ice is kept in a storage tank?

Ice (cold energy) is kept in a storage tank to provide a stable supply of low-temperature chilled water that is close to 0℃ (32℉). In line with their load and application needs, clients can choose from two types, a slurry ice system or a static ice system. Additionally, we can design storage tanks according to heat source capacity and heat loads.
