The electricity sector in Israel suffers from rising demand peaks that do not match the production reserves, with more than 40 percent of total consumption devoted solely to air conditioning. Electricity consumption as a result of air conditioning takes place at any given time and in particular during the “peak” hours, ie during the peak hours of a particular season. In order to reduce such high power consumption during these busy hours, a variety of solutions have been developed to enable thermal energy storage. In this salt mixture there are substances that change the state of their accumulation, store and release thermal energy.
These accumulators are capable of storing heat / cold during the downturn period. this heat / cold can be utilized during peak periods and thus lead to energy efficiency and significant reduction in electricity costs.
