Ice Energy lands 16 contracts with Southern California Edison

Ben Welter - Thursday, November 06, 2014

Ice Energy has been awarded sixteen contracts from Southern California Edison to provide 25.6 megawatts of behind-the-meter thermal energy storage using Ice Energy’s Ice Bear system. The TES system attaches to one or more standard 5- to 20-ton commercial AC units. The system makes ice at night when demand for electricity is low and capacity is abundant and increasingly sourced from wind and other renewables. During the day, the stored ice is used to provide cooling.
