World’s 1st Retrofittable Thermal Energy Storage for Refrigeration & Air-Conditioning
Problem Statement Peak demand-supply gap in electrical grid exists & expected to worsen in near future
2 Inficold Confidential
Load Shedding
• India loses 25% of its food
• 90 GW Installed Diesel Generators
Solar Proliferation
• Storage imminent with solar
• Electric batteries make solar costlier than grid
Peak Power Tariffs
• Managed by gas peaking power plants in developed world
• TOU* rates prevalent with even free night tariffs
Ice storage common across the world for custom engineered large-size AC applications (1GW installations in USA)
Off-the-shelf storage solution for small commercial & residential applications has immense potential
*Time of the Use
Burj Khalifa Taipei 101 Bank of America Rockefeller Center Goldman Sachs
Patented Architecture (2 Patents underway) Most efficient & compact energy storage
AC Cold
Storage Reefer Truck
50-150 $/kWhe Capex against ~300 $/kWhe Electric Battery
15 yrs Life against ~5 yrs for Electric Battery
Milk Cooler

Inficold Confidential *Total addressable market for Inficold’s energy storage system
• Farmer stores 5MT of baby corn at 4oC for exports
• Power availability is 10-12 hours every day
• Back up provided via a 7.5 kVA diesel generator (DG)
• Inficold system requires 8hrs of electricity anytime of the day for cooling backup for up to 24 hours
• Inficold obviated the usage of 7.5 kVA DG set resulting in daily savings 20L of diesel
