This article from the Austin Business Journal reports that Austin will be the first city in Texas to try out a new clean energy storage system. Austin Energy is planning to use the Ice Energy storage system to store energy during off-peak hours to distribute later during peak usage hours in small- to mid-sized commercial buildings. Ice Energy has also been affiliated with the Pecan Street Project.

More information about how the Ice Energy storage system works is available here.
