Ice thermal energy storage (TES) system was implemented to store harvested ice and thaw the storage medium later. Energy efficient control is accomplished by the hybrid ice TES system of water phase transition, solid–melting–liquid and liquid–freezing–sold ( Ezan et al., 2010, Zhai et al., 2013, Beghi et al., 2014 ).
