Patent

CA 2683532

A cost-effective method of heating a space in a facility comprises: (a) determining a cost of electricity from an electricity vendor; (b) when the determined cost of electricity is below an electricity pricing setpoint, obtaining sufficient electricity from the vendor to heat a heatable material such as water above a first temperature setpoint; and (c) when the heatable material has a temperature above the first temperature setpoint and a space requires heating, heating the space using at least some of the heat stored in the heatable material. Such method is particularly cost-effective when using electricity charged at a time-of-use basis.

Procédé rentable pour chauffer un espace. Le procédé consiste à (a) déterminer le coût d'électricité proposé par un fournisseur d'électricité ; (b) lorsque le coût déterminé est inférieur à un point de consigne de tarif d'électricité, obtenir suffisamment d'électricité du fournisseur pour chauffer un matériau chauffable, tel que de l'eau, au-dessus d'un premier point de consigne de température ; et (c) lorsque le matériau chauffable dépasse le premier point de consigne et qu'un espace doit être chauffé, chauffer l'espace en utilisant au moins une partie de la chaleur stockée dans le matériau chauffable. Un tel procédé est particulièrement rentable avec de l'électricité facturée à l'heure.
