Blue Frontier’s AC system combines dew-point-style sensible cooling with liquid desiccant dehumidification to reduce electricity use by up to 90%. The desiccant is recharged and stored when electricity is the cleanest or lowest cost and later used to deliver cooling when electricity is dirty or costly. These features enable our system to address and solve an array of today’s biggest sustainability problems.
