Nostromo Energy, Inc. has announced the selection of its IceBrick® thermal energy storage system for installation at the world’s busiest airport, Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Selected through a competitive process, the project includes three systems with a combined capacity of 2,200 Ton-refrigeration-hours across three airport concourses. Scheduled for completion in 2026, the modular IceBrick technology is designed to shift cooling demand to off-peak hours, providing the world’s busiest airport with increased operational efficiency, reduced peak loads, and essential backup cooling capacity.
As a 100% safe, US-made solution, the IceBrick system offers a scalable alternative for managing large cooling loads in commercial buildings and data centers. By utilizing stored ice during periods of high demand or grid constraint, the technology helps host operators lower costs while supporting grid stability and deferring the need for infrastructure upgrades. This deployment underscores Nostromo’s commitment to redefining demand management and enhancing energy resilience in high-traffic environments.
