Dynamic Ice Slurry for Energy Storage Applications

Dynamic ice slurry storage technology enables “peak shaving and valley filling” of grid loads and demand-side response by producing ice slurry during nighttime low-load or low-electricity-price periods, and releasing cooling capacity during daytime peak-price periods. At the same time, this technology effectively absorbs unstable surplus wind and solar power, stores them in the form of high-density ice slurry, and outputs cooling energy as a stable, controllable cold source—achieving time-shifted transfer and efficient utilization of renewable energy

Specific Applications of Dynamic Ice Storage in Electric Energy Storage

Enabling the renewable-based grid · shifting load · firming wind · integrating solar

Cold Storage for Off-Peak Electricity Consumption

Charge during low-demand night hours or when electricity is cheap. Discharge during peak periods, reducing demand charges by 40–60% and relieving grid stress.

Cold Storage for Wind Power Generation

Wind often peaks at night or during low demand. Ice slurry plants ramp in minutes to absorb surplus, transforming curtailed MWh into cooling capacity – ready for next-day use.

Cold Storage for Solar Power Generation

Midday solar peaks align with A/C demand. Ice storage absorbs excess PV, preventing inverter clipping and boosting self-consumption above 90%. Smooth the duck curve.


high power density


Dynamic ice slurry, composed of ice crystals ranging from 0.1 to 1 mm in size, exhibits pumpable liquid-like properties and offers over five times the heat exchange capacity of static ice. This characteristic makes it highly suitable for applications with significant fluctuations in cooling load and perfectly adaptable to the rapid start-stop cycles of renewable energy sources—when used as an energy storage medium, it poses no risk of blockage

⚡🌬️☀️ Three operating modes

Peak Load Shifting for Power Grid

Charge during night valleys or low-price periods; discharge at peak to cut costs and relieve grid.

Wind Power Fluctuation Mitigation

When wind power is at its peak, the system quickly makes ice, converting the wind power that would otherwise be abandoned into cold energy and storing it for later use.

Photovoltaic Smoothing

Absorbing surplus photovoltaic power during midday to avoid inverter curtailment, shifting solar energy for use in the evening.
