Recently named an R&D 100 Award winner, the Energy Storing and Efficient Air Conditioner is a new class of cooling technology—one that separates dehumidification from active cooling and integrates energy storage to reduce costs, support grid stability, and maintain indoor comfort with significantly less energy.
According to the Annual Energy Outlook 2020 report by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, cooling spaces consumed 10 % of total U.S. electricity in 2019, with this demand projected to increase further.
The widespread use of air conditioning systems to maintain indoor temperatures within the comfort range (20–26 °C) contributes significantly to escalating electricity consumption.
In the event of a temporary power outage, the exceptional heat storage capacity of the PCM-based CESS can serve as a reliable emergency backup for the air conditioning unit, ensuring uninterrupted cooling operations.
Conventional air conditioners use vapor-compression refrigeration, cooling and dehumidifying air simultaneously. This coupling often requires overcooling followed by reheating to maintain comfort.
Furthermore, this study did not directly integrate PCM with air conditioning systems, which precludes a direct analysis of energy consumption in real-world scenarios. Thus, future research should prioritize the direct integration of PCM with air conditioning systems and include energy consumption analysis as a core component.
To ensure the reliable operation of energy storage batteries, there are generally two methods: air cooling and liquid cooling. The air-cooling method uses forced convection of air to cool the air
