Terry Andrews LEED AP tandrews@calmac.com The Worlds Leader in Thermal Energy Storage Thermal storage systems remove heat from or add heat to a storage medium for use at another time. For ice or water based systems, this means
Thermal storage systems remove heat from or
add heat to a storage medium for use at another time.
For ice or water based systems, this means
using a chiller to produce ice or water during the night when electric rates are lower and using the ice for cooling during the peak periods.

DEMAND (kW) Peak kW based
- n the highest
peak that occurred during the month
Demand charges are additive for many buildings (Summer peak period is noon to 6pm, June thru September, 4 months)
Summer demand charges include: $ 16.74/kW during peak period + $ 18.21/kW for the facilities related demand
What the heck is a facilities demand charge?
It’s a 2nd demand charge for high peak demand that occurs during
the previous month….independent of the time of day. It is defined in the rate sheet as follows:
”The Facilities Related Component shall be for
the kW of Maximum Demand recorded during (or established for) the monthly billing period.”

Energy flows mostly one way
Stored Energy Energy
Energy Flows into and out of the grid
zero
Solar Panel Thermal Wind Turbine Fossil Fuels Batteries The grid becomes responsible for backup energy when the wind stops blowing or the sun is not shining Fossil fuel is a form of stored energy Designers tend to remove building sited renewable back up equipment
Net Zero Grid Building
Procuring 5 times the amount required by utility demonstrates:

Title 24 employs a “TIME DEPENDENT VALUATION” when evaluating energy usage. This encourages load shifting.
The “TIME DEPENDENT VALUATION” uses multipliers that vary with the hour, energy type, climate zone and building type.
Per Energy Design Resources “e-News”
TDV “Favors measures such as day lighting or thermal storage that save energy during periods of peak demand”
Performance & Prescriptive Approaches The Performance Approach - Determine an energy budget using TDV per the ACM Manual (The “performance approach” is used to demonstrate that the building exceeds Title 24 standards)
