Abstract

By utilizing their existing thermal energy storage (TES) system, Arizona State University (ASU) can significantly increase the amount of solar PV they are using. With a change in the TES management scheme, significant increases in PV are enabled, which leads to drastic decreases in carbon dioxide emissions, helping them to meet their goal of becoming a zero-carbon emission institution.
