Princeton University Facilities Engineering and Thermo Systems Mark Energy Savings
Achieved By New Thermal Energy Storage Plant
Thermo Systems attended a breakfast marking the one year anniversary
of the commissioning of the Princeton University Thermal Energy Storage Plant. Engineers
from Princeton University Facilities Engineering, Carter and Burgess Engineers,
Skanska USA construction management and Thermo Systems were on hand. All were pleased
to note that the energy savings realized in the first full year of operation exceeded
original estimates.
The construction of the chiller plant expansion was completed in 2005. Thermo Systems
provided a turnkey automation solution for the new 40,000 ton/hour thermal energy
storage tank, two new electric chillers, eight heat exchangers, a new cooling tower,
and integration of the electrical gear. In addition, Thermo Systems integrated the
chiller plant expansion with the existing plant as well as the existing cogeneration
facility.
