The integration of thermal energy storage in chilled water systems is an effective way to improve energy efficiency and is essential for achieving carbon emission reduction.
As a commonly used as energy storage medium, SHS can not only store or release thermal energy in heating, but also shows good performance in cold storage applications. The SHS system has been applied to chilled
In chilled water storage systems, a constant source of water (usually a water tank) is utilized to store the energy which can be provided by a central or off-site chilled water

1984 – Central Plant 3 Million Gallon Chilled Water Thermal Storage. 1995 – Central Plant (2) 1500 Ton Double Effect LiBr Absorption Chiller addition. 2001 – Central Plant (3) 1500 Ton R
The use of chilled water as SHS is mainly used as a coolant in large refrigeration units or for air conditioning and cooling of buildings, as shown in the Fig. 12, during the charging period of the CWS, chilled water at 5–6 °C
Universally recognized and accepted, Thermal Energy Storage (TES) has enabled facilities requiring chilled water-cooling to significantly decrease costs while maintaining desired service
Chilled water storage, which utilizes the sensible heat (4.184 kJ kg −1 K −1) to store cooling, needs a relatively large storage tank as compared to other storage systems that have a larger latent heat of fusion. However, it

With limited investment cost and easy implementation, the proposed method and the control optimization significantly enhance the airport system energy performance. The direct field data comparison demonstrated the average chiller plant COP value is improved by 5.93%.
Chilled water storage was seen as the preferred technology by the chiller manufacturers as their existing product lines required no changes; but the challenge was to avoid mixing the supply and return chilled water to maxi-mize capacity and maintain cool supply temperature. The TES industry experimented with various designs
Meanwhile, the control optimizations of chillers and seawater pumps also contribute to the system energy performance improvement. With limited investment cost and easy implementation, the proposed method and the control optimization significantly enhance the airport system energy performance.
Energy demands in the airport include both static and movable energy demands. The former includes power demands for runway lights, telecommunication system in the control tower, data processing computer and radar navigation systems. The latter includes aircrafts, pass-by vehicles (such as FCEVs and electrical vehicles).
Energy flexibility from airport energy ecosystems for smart grids with power supply reliability Due to the deferrable load and large storage capacity, the aggregated electric vehicles can become flexible sources and enhance system resilience. Smart grid can work intelligently to dispatch power flow in multi-energy systems [ 70 ].
Coastal energy resources are full of huge potentials to support airport energy systems, through off-shore wind turbines, floating PV panels, current turbines, wave energy converters, tidal stream generators, and ocean thermo-electric generators.
