        conditioner property' means a cooling system which--
                    ``(A) consists of thermal storage or ice storage 
                components which create, store, and supply cooling 
                energy to reduce peak electricity demand by displacing 
                the daytime peak electrical demand of conventional 
                mechanical cooling equipment,
                    ``(B) has a nameplate operational capability to 
                deliver a minimum of 29,000 Btu and a maximum of 
                240,000 Btu of cooling capacity,
                    ``(C) is designed to deliver such cooling capacity

                demand by 90 percent for the cooling load served, and
                    ``(E) is designed so as not to exceed the 24 hour 
                energy consumption of conventional cooling equipment by

            ``(2) Inclusion of related equipment.--Such term shall 
        include any secondary components which integrate the cooling 
        system described in paragraph (1) with the conventional cooling 
        system, including equipment and controls for measuring and 
        reporting operation and performance, but shall not include any

                respect to such property shall not exceed an amount 
                equal to $500 for each 0.5 kilowatt of peak demand 
                reduction of such property.

                subsection, the term `peak demand reduction' means the 
                removal of electrical demand (kW) on the utility grid 
                system during the daily time period of high electrical 
                demand. The peak demand reduction shall be determined 
                based on Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) standards for 
                residential and commercial air conditioning equipment, 
                established under the Energy Policy and Conservation 
                Act of 1975.''.
