Gas Chillers Offer One Solution To Energy Shortage Problem
The electric power shortages in California this past summer could become commonplace across the country, according to the U.S. Department of Energy and industry experts, as the demand for electricity continues to outstrip growth of generating capacity.
“We aren’t surprised by the California experience,” said Bill Steward, product manager for York International’s natural-gas-powered chillers. “And until we change how we use energy, it will eventually happen throughout the country. Even where there is ample generating capacity, distribution during peak demand periods is often insufficient.”
