Integrating renewable electricity on the grid requires system flexibility. This flexibility can come from several building end-uses, but it should not impact occupant comfort or safety. This is possible by using thermal energy storage, which enables flexibility of HVACR loads while still delivering cooling, heating or domestic hot water when needed. This session presents three grid-connected thermal storage applications that reduce utility costs for building owners while also providing flexibility that the grid needs for higher renewable penetration. The presenters describe how smart controls are critical to facilitate renewable electricity generation, and, in one application, electric vehicle charging.
