ACES – Air Conditioning Energy Saving

The Impact of ACES

Intelligent air-conditioning control to reduce energy costs

Each year, air conditioning systems consume more than one trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity. In warmer climates, they can be a full 50% of an organisation’s energy spend and a massive draw on resources. We have the solution – ACES.

High Energy Savings :-
Our system could save your business up to 35% on its air-con costs, with a 1-2 year payback period and knock-on benefits to noise control.
Reduced Maintenance :-
By ensuring certain parts of your air-con only work when they're needed, we can extend your product's life-cycle & reduce maintenance costs.
Simple Installation :-
ACES is compact, safe and simple to install and, once it's in, you won't need to touch it again. Very much a plug-and-play solution.

The world needs more efficient air conditioning

ACES (our Air Conditioning Energy System) is the solution you’ve been looking for.

The ACES Solution

ACES directly addresses the problem of thermodynamic saturation (TS).

Through advanced temperature sensing and control algorithms, the ACES unit detects the exact point at which TS is reached and switches the compressor off.

It doesn’t touch the fan though, which continues to run – maximising the effect of latent cooling left in the compressor’s coils. The fan draws a negligible amount of energy, so this barely impacts the device’s energy profile.

When the compressor is needed again, ACES commands the air-con to pop it on again. The result is that your energy-hungry compressor only works when it’s needed. Your air-con performance stays the same, but your energy consumption can be reduced by as much as 35%.

The Impact of ACES

The key impact of ACES is shown on the graph (right).

As you can see, the introduction of the ACES product into an air-con fixture modulates the supply of air into the space. Whilst never actually breaching the temperature set on the thermostat or programmer, the system switches the compressor on and off as required.

The result is a considerable amount of time where the air con is active, but not drawing excessive amounts of energy from your supplier.

Though very widely applicable, we have found the most remarkable results in industries like convenience stores and fast food chains – particularly in warmer climates – where a cool space is a must and air-con spend is consequently very high. Even so, just about any building anywhere can benefit from this technology.
