Are your cooling bills going up? Air conditioning represents up to 40% of a building's peak electricity use and can weigh heavily on your bottom line. Adding Ice Bear AC modifications to your air conditioning system can cut your cooling costs by up to 40%, and reduce your building carbon footprint without compromising comfort. Ice Bear batteries are one of the greenest and smartest energy investments you can make to save money, improve your building and increase the comfort of its occupants.
Icy smart
Ice Bear charges by making ice during off-peak hours when rates are low. When demand peaks and rates go up, your Ice Bear battery turns off the AC compressor and uses the stored ice to provide cooling instead. A smart-grid controller allows you to monitor your energy use and to control the performance of your system. The results speak for themselves: a 95% reduction of your peak cooling electricity use and immediate savings!
