This paper introduces an innovative dynamic ice storage system based on ice slurry designed to shift electricity demand and improve energy flexibility for consumers in subtropical climates, thereby reducing energy consumption and contributing to decarbonization.
Ice storage technology, which allows electrical loads to be shifted from peak to off-peak periods, is widely used for cooling needs [28, 29]. Ice storage systems basically consist of chillers and ice storage mechanisms.
With the maturity and popularity of ice storage technology, more commercial buildings have adopted ice storage systems to solve the problem of the uneven day and night energy demand, which has also brought considerable economic benefits. Many researchers have studied the ice storage systems in the worldwide.
The dynamic ice energy storage technology is originated from the Fourier’s law. The basic formula for heat conduction is as follow in Eq. (1) , which indicates that the amount of heat exchange per unit time is proportional to the thermal conductivity.
While the energy balance primarily focuses on the active charging and discharging phases of the dynamic ice storage system, potential standing losses (e.g., thermal dissipation and idling losses) were not explicitly measured or modeled due to data limitations.
