Posts about District Cooling (5)

Have you ever imagined that there was a time when district cooling systems did not exist? It is even harder to imagine how life would be without this technology. Industry and developments would require full support of the grid and miss solutions offered by renewables and waste heat, among other bene[..]

Air conditioning is so expensive that it is sometimes even difficult to place a figure on it. Many factors feature when you attempt to determine the cost of running an air conditioning system. Some of these are the level of service needed, amount of space being cooled and ambient air temperature. Th[..]

Many industrial sites such as oil and gas production facilities and district cooling plants are located on the seashore. These facilities use seawater as a cooling medium if it is technically and economically feasible. The cooling of fluids is a full part of the process through the use of heat excha[..]

Heat is a byproduct of many processes today, even high precision and high-speed operation technologies. Servers, variable frequency drives, spindle motors and other countless components need perpetual or regular cooling to perform optimally. HVAC systems in a typical commercial facility can consume [..]

Currently, over 50 % of the global population lives in urban areas. There are all indications that this figure will continue to increase, adding more strain to the environment in terms of energy use and emissions. Due to these developments, energy efficiency is taking center stage in most processes,[..]

The Energy Industry is undergoing massive changes, as focus turns to smart buildings, enhanced energy efficiency and centralized energy systems. Each stakeholder wants to boost the industry by designing customizable systems, a wide range of standard solutions and enhanced capabilities, putting into [..]

Mega projects are infamously expensive to implement, and as much as 90% go beyond the timeline, as found by Roland Berger. The next 15 years will see an increased roll out of projects to the tune of €75 trillion in investments. The cost of these projects goes beyond finances as seen in the case of t[..]

Oil rich countries are grappling with dwindling revenue coupled with energy subsidies and higher energy per capital consumption. This situation has prompted the affected nations to develop networks and expand capacity using constrained budgets. Is there a way out of this quagmire? The US and Europe [..]

Seawater cooled chillers are becoming more and more common for big district cooling plants close to the seashore. The high efficiency of these chillers together with a zero fresh water consumption make this technology as extremely interesting from the OPEX and environmental points of view. For sea w[..]

Facilities, especially in Subtropical zone and Hot Summer Cold Winter zone, are turning to a better technology-District Cooling (DC). Studies have continually shown the superiority of DC over individual cooling systems. This modern mode of air conditioning a network of facilities in cities and other[..]

The District Cooling Plant is crucial to the AYLA OASIS Resort Project Aqaba in in the Gulf of Aqaba, Kingdom of Jordan. Its purpose is to supply chilled water to the Energy Transfer Stations that will feed the luxurious residences, hotels and parks will form the landscape of this beautiful syntheti[..]

High temperatures can generate production problems in industrial plants or uncomfortable environment in public or private edifications. In order to avoid these situations more efficiently, cooling plants are the solution. ARANER can supply high quality cooling plants with proven solutions in:
