Therefore, our design does utilize a method for storing energy for cooling as needed. The combined air conditioning and thermal storage system is intended as a technology to increase the effectiveness of solar photovoltaic energy use.
For a lower cost of solar panels or a higher cost of thermal storage, the system design would instead include a solar array. The energy saved would be much higher in this case, and a smaller size thermal storage tank could be used. If the optimized parameter is energy saved instead of cost, the solar array would be in the chosen system.
While solar cooling can be provided without any storage capacity, our design is intended to make use of the high levels of sunlight during the peak irradiation time during the day in order to provide cooling during the subsequent period of peak cooling demand. Therefore, our design does utilize a method for storing energy for cooling as needed.
The design of the system allows owners to better cope with peak energy rates by relying on solar power during the day and stored thermal energy during the evening. Photovoltaic energy collected during times of peak solar radiation can be stored and therefore can be accessed during peak energy rate hours to meet cooling load.
