The Ice Bear 30 product pairs a patented energy storage module with an off-the-shelf air conditioning condensing unit, integrating seamlessly with the conventional rooftop and split-system air conditioners that cool almost all light-commercial and residential buildings.

By combining conventional air conditioning with Ice Energy’s ground-breaking Ice Bear energy storage technology and using each when it’s most efficient and cost-effective, hybrid cooling saves money and reduces the impact on the environment.

The Power of Ice!

The Ice Bear hybrid air conditioning system stores cooling energy by freezing water in an insulated storage tank. It cools by circulating chilled refrigerant from the tank during the day to the evaporative coil of the conventional A/C system, eliminating the need to run the energy-intensive compressor. Ice is then refrozen each night when demand is lower and electricity is cleaner, more efficient and less expensive.

During off-peak hours, the conventional HVAC system operates as usual.

Widely compatible with commercial rooftop and split systems from 3-10 tons, the Ice Bear 30 Hybrid Air Conditioner is designed for fast, reliable connection to most HVAC systems, requiring no modification to existing ductwork or structure.
