The Night Shift program offers a viable means to contribute to a more sustainable way of doing business. Installing Hybrid Air Conditioning can help lower a building’s carbon/greenhouse gas footprint.

For the Environment — Power generation and transmission is a cleaner, more efficient process at night. Because the Ice Bear® Hybrid Air Conditioner primarily consumes power at night rather than the day, it results in:

• 56% lower NOx emissions1
• 40% lower CO2 greenhouse gas emissions1,
• A 20% - 43% reduction in the amount of energy power plants consume in the process of generating and delivering electricity 2

Hybrid A/C also enhances the performance and value of clean technologies such as solar PV and wind, improving their viability and filling an important gap in today’s renewable energy portfolio.

For Your Community — Hybrid A/C helps avoid blackouts by easing the strain that peak demand periods place on the power grid. This allows utility companies to handle demand without costly expansion that gets passed through to users in the form of rate hikes and surcharges.
Hybrid A/C is also a powerful sustainable design option that can be used toward LEED certification and compliance with California’s Title 24 Building Energy Code. Selecting Hybrid A/C from Ice Energy for your building design provides “cleaner,” more eco-responsible construction within the community.

For Future Generations — Those who choose Hybrid A/C play a meaningful role in the effort to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and improve the efficiency and reliability of our power grid. Doing so is a critical step in safeguarding our climate and natural resources as well as securing America’s energy independence.
