[Equest-users] Ice Storage: Equipment controls and Load management

[Walson, Kristy]

Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience using the Equipment Controls and Load Management functions in Equest?  I'm trying to set up an ice storage plant and previous equest forum posts suggested that I utilize these tools to run the chillers at the right time of day.  My energy consumption, notably my pumping energy, goes WAY up when I try to utilize these settings, so I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

If anyone has successfully used Equest to analyze ice storage as an energy cost saving measure, can you run through your process?  Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks for the help!
