2. Ice storage air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_storage_air_conditioning

   Illustration of an ice storage air conditioning unit in production. Ice storage air conditioning is the process of using ice for thermal energy storage. The process can reduce energy used for cooling during times of peak electrical demand. [1] Alternative power sources such as solar can also use the technology to store energy for later use. [1]

3. Building envelope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_envelope

   A blower door test can be used to test the quality of the air sealing of the building envelope. Smoke pencils can be used to detect gaps and caulking and weather-stripping can be used to improve air sealing. [10] HVAC systems can ensure that a building’s air intake is both adequate, safe, and energy efficient.

4. Energy storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_storage

   Thermal energy storage (TES) can be used for air conditioning. [105] It is most widely used for cooling single large buildings and/or groups of smaller buildings. Commercial air conditioning systems are the biggest contributors to peak electrical loads. In 2009, thermal storage was used in over 3,300 buildings in over 35 countries.

6. Passive cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_cooling

   Passive cooling covers all natural processes and techniques of heat dissipation and modulation without the use of energy. [1] Some authors consider that minor and simple mechanical systems (e.g. pumps and economizers) can be integrated in passive cooling techniques, as long they are used to enhance the effectiveness of the natural cooling process. [7]

7. Vapor-compression refrigeration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor-compression...

   A representative pressure–volume diagram for a refrigeration cycle. Vapour-compression refrigeration or vapor-compression refrigeration system (VCRS), [1] in which the refrigerant undergoes phase changes, is one of the many refrigeration cycles and is the most widely used method for air conditioning of buildings and automobiles.
