DUBAI, September 28, 2015

Emirates Central Cooling Systems Corporation (Empower), a UAE-based district cooling services provider, said it has developed a strategy that is aligned with Dubai Plan 2021 perspectives.

The company is exerting efforts in six key themes, including - City of Happy, Creative & Empowered People, An Inclusive & Cohesive Society, The Preferred Place to Live, Work & Visit; A Smart & Sustainable City, A Pivotal Hub in the Global Economy, and a Pioneering and Excellent Government.

Empower has been awarded the Dubai Chamber CSR Label in recognition of its success in operating sustainably and responsibly across corporate practices.

This functions as a concise and voluntary standard for businesses across the emirate to incorporate corporate social responsibility practices in their operations.

It also launched a training programme in which many UAE students are being familiarised with skills needed in district cooling industry.

The company also organised a humanitarian entertainment event in collaboration with the Thalassemia Centre Dubai, and launched an emirate-wide summer campaign to reduce district cooling consumption and boost transparency levels in its billing methodology.

“These are only a few examples carried out by Empower in the past few months, not to mention the company’s efforts over more than a decade in operation,” said its chief executive Ahmad Bin Shafar.

“We will go further in supporting Dubai to become a City of Happy, Creative & Empowered People,” he noted.

"Over the past year, Empower has been providing continuous uninterrupted services based on highest international standards, in order to achieve customer satisfaction, and offer high-quality living experience which enhances Dubai’s position as the preferred place to live, work & visit," said Bin Shafar.

Earlier this year, the company was honoured by The International District Energy Association (IDEA) with its Innovation Award 2015, in recognition for its Centralized Metering Data Management System that manages more than 50,000 smart meters.

Empower won this award for the second time, a reflection of its high global standing in the field of innovation, stated Bin Shafar.

According to him, Empower’s green practices are in line with the theme of making Dubai a smart and sustainable city.

"We have created a state-of-the-art, world-class command control centre that ensures a sustainable and secure supply of district cooling services in Dubai. We have adopted accurate and highly sophisticated monitoring systems that provide multi-technology measurement tools to track and manage all aspects of district cooling services," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
