How Thermal Energy Storage Tanks Create Big Savings

The thermal energy storage tank shifts two megawatts of load from peak to off-peak hours. This reduces about 40% of the peak demand for cooling, equaling a savings of about $320,000 every year. The Pacific Palms Resort saves more than $300,000 in energy costs thanks in large part to this energy storage system, CALMAC says.

All About Water Storage Tanks

Nonpressurized Storage Tanks (Cisterns) Nonpressurized storage tanks are large-capacity tanks designed to store a significant volume of water. Unlike pressure tanks, cisterns don''t directly pressurize the water. Instead, they act as a reservoir, providing an additional water supply when demand exceeds the well''s capacity.
