Helping Homes & Commercial Properties in Rocklin Save On Cooling Costs

Optimize Air Conditioning Load For Properties in Placer County, El Dorado County & Throughout Northern California

With rising temperatures, power grids are increasingly stressed. Air conditioning is the main driver of peak demand and the most difficult load to manage. Ice Energy's behind-the-meter Ice Bear batteries offer utilities a proven way to permanently eliminate up to 95% of peak cooling load. Since 2005, over 40 utilities have been using our award-winning Ice Bears to manage their customers’ AC load without impacting comfort throughout Rocklin and Northern California.

How do thermal batteries work?

Ice Bear Batteries Offer Utilities a Proven Way to Permanently Shift Peak HVAC Cooling Load

The Ice Bear stores energy by freezing and storing ice during cooler, off-peak hours. During peak hours, it turns off energy-intensive AC compressors and uses the stored ice instead to provide cooling for up to 8 hours. Each Ice Bear battery comes equipped with a smart-grid controller and bi-directional communications to give utilities real-time visibility and control. Individual units, custom groupings or entire fleets can be dispatched to shift and optimize cooling loads. Learn more

Deployable at megawatt scale

How it works

The Ice Bear is a smart, distributed thermal battery that seamlessly integrates with a building’s cooling system and answers the needs of commercial, industrial and residential customers.
