Shifting Electrical Load for Big Savings
The key to Thermal
Storage is to be able to put energy in at the proper time and get it
out when it is needed.
Precision Boilers'
high temperature hot water Thermal Storage System is able to do just
that. Energy is put in the vessel when it is cost effective, stored,
and extracted when it is needed.
Being able to control
this process without an interruption to the comfort level is what
makes Thermal Storage so desirable. Most commercial utility charges
are made up of at least two parts: (1) an energy usage charge for
kilowatt hours used and (2) a demand charge for having the capacity
available to deliver electricity when it is needed.
By deferring or
shifting electrical load to a different time, one can level the
total load and balance the electrical profile of a building. When
the consumer is able to level his own individual building electrical
demand profile, substantial savings can be realized over the cost of
operating a conventional boiler or water heater.
Many utilities
are willing to reward customers who will assist them with leveling
the utilities’ power usage spikes with better rates. These "off
peak" or "time of day" rates actually require the customer to be off
line for time periods up to sixteen hours with savings of 25% to 50%
from peak time rates.
Key Advantages
• Lower electrical costs
• Saves electricity charges by reducing demand and taking advantage
of
off peak rates
• Compatible with ice/chilled water storage systems
