Thermal energy storage Phase Change Materials (PCM) store and release thermal energy during the process of melting and freezing, and the latest range of PCM solutions between -100C and +885 C offer new application opportunities. For example, the excess capacity of existing +7C water chillers can be stored in +10ºC PCM containers overnight, using lower ambient and lower electricity costs. This efficient and lower-cost stored energy tops up the day peak loads, saving considerable running costs, doubling the existing system capacity, or halving the chiller capacity for new design. l For more information call 01733 245511 or visit
