Reduce peak demand
Store cooling ahead of expensive or high-load periods, then use it when refrigeration demand is highest.
THERMAL FLEXIBILITY · PREDICTED AND CONTROLLED
KaldFlyte predicts cooling demand, manages thermal storage and coordinates refrigeration assets ahead of what the site needs next — reducing peak demand, preserving cooling headroom and creating a flexible energy resource.
01 / THE CORE INSIGHT
Refrigeration systems are designed around maintaining temperature, but they are rarely operated around what the site — or the energy system — will need next.
Thermal storage changes that. Cooling can be produced ahead of demand, held in reserve, and released when compressors or electrical capacity are most constrained.
KaldFlyte makes that flexibility predictable and controllable.
FLEXIBILITY / RESILIENCE
Especially when you know how much you have — and when to use it.
02 / OUTCOMES
Store cooling ahead of expensive or high-load periods, then use it when refrigeration demand is highest.
Hold cooling capacity in reserve so the site has additional headroom when compressors, electrical infrastructure, or the grid are under stress.
Make available cooling capacity measurable, forecastable and dispatchable — ready for demand response and energy markets where those opportunities exist.
03 / OPERATING LOOP
KaldFlyte connects site data with weather and operating conditions, builds a model of how the site behaves, dispatches available thermal flexibility, and checks the real result against the prediction.
Each cycle improves the next decision.
Connect to existing refrigeration, metering and controls infrastructure using the protocols already present.
Build an operating model from weather, load, temperature and equipment data, continually checked against reality.
Decide when to build ice, hold reserve, pre-condition the store, coast safely or discharge cooling.
Measure every dispatch against its predicted outcome and feed the result back into the next decision.
04 / AVAILABLE CAPACITY
KaldFlyte understands how much flexibility is available, how long it can be used safely, and when that flexibility is most valuable.
A supermarket has several sources of flexibility, each with different limits and durations.
A purpose-built thermal battery that charges with cooling ahead of demand, stores that capacity as ice, and discharges it when cooling or electrical headroom is needed.
A known period of safe temperature headroom that can allow cases to coast temporarily without compromising product conditions.
Stored thermal mass and safe temperature range create another source of short-duration flexibility.
The building and its internal mass can be pre-conditioned when conditions make that useful.
KaldFlyte treats humidity and indoor conditions as limits to optimisation, not values to sacrifice.
Thermal flexibility can reduce compressor loading and preserve electrical capacity when the site is under stress.
KaldFlyte coordinates these resources as one thermal system — while respecting the safe operating limits of each.
05 / DEDICATED STORAGE
KaldFlyte provides the intelligence. IceCap provides dedicated thermal capacity.
IceCap stores cooling as ice alongside the refrigeration system, allowing cooling production and cooling demand to be separated in time.
KaldFlyte forecasts when that capacity will be most valuable — building ice ahead of demand, holding reserve when resilience matters, and discharging when the site needs additional cooling or electrical headroom.
IceCap is not the only source of flexibility in a supermarket, but it provides a large, controllable reserve that makes the wider thermal system significantly more capable.

06 / MARKET FOCUS
Supermarkets have large, continuous cooling loads, meaningful thermal inertia, and a strong operational need for resilience.
IceCap adds controllable stored cooling. KaldFlyte decides when that capacity — together with the flexibility already present in the store — is best created, held, or used.
The result is a refrigeration system that can respond to what is coming next, rather than simply reacting to what is happening now.
The same approach can extend to cold storage, industrial cooling and data-centre thermal systems.
