Problems solved by technology

However, due to the need to absorb heat from the air in the heat source tower through the solution in winter, the antifreeze is circulated in the tower, which greatly limits the application of the heat source tower heat pump system. At the same time, due to the different operating conditions of the heat pump unit in winter and summer, The operating conditions in winter are worse than in summer, so the heat pump system of the heat source tower is usually configured to take winter operation into consideration. The energy efficiency ratio of the heat pump unit in summer is lower than that of conventional chillers, essentially sacrificing part of the performance in summer to meet the normal operation in winter.
[0003] Ice storage technology makes full use of peak and valley electricity prices to save energy costs. However, ice storage requires a large area of ​​ice storage tanks for storage, and at the same time requires the use of refrigerant ethylene glycol to transport cold energy. The equipment occupies a large area and is high investment
