The energy industry is always looking for ways to achieve greater efficiency and innovation. The fact is, although Thermal Energy Storage (TES) has been around for a while, it is still the most innovative solution on the market. Thermal Energy Storage allows us to store in tanks chilled water that was produced during off-peak hours […]

We frequently use ammonia refrigeration systems for very large cooling applications, such as Industrial Refrigeration. Chillers using ammonia are becoming commonplace in green buildings and may be a viable option for District Cooling systems. As refrigerant legislation continues to get tighter, encouraging the use of alternative environmentally-friendly refrigerants, ammonia becomes a more attractive alternative. Ammonia’s global […]

Regardless of the important changes that the energy industry is going through these days, natural gas-fired power plants continue to be on the rise after many years. Gas turbine power plants are a popular choice for power production and manufacturing industries, as they offer lower costs, greater efficiency, and lower carbon emissions than other options. […]

Thermal Energy Storage (TES) tanks are a widely proven and efficient technology that allows the storage of chilled water produced during off-peak periods for its use during daily peak hours. A TES tank reduces the operational cost and the required capacity of cooling plants, increasing the efficiency and reducing the capital cost, among other advantages. […]

District Cooling plants have become an increasingly popular option to provide cost-effective, efficient cooling to business districts and communities. In areas where there is a nearby source of naturally-occurring cold water, many of these plants are opting to use water-cooled chillers. Water-cooled chillers, as their name states, use water to remove excess heat from the […]
