Palm District Cooling charts growth plan

Dubai, February 26, 2009

Palm Utilities (PU), the water and district cooling utility service provider, has been actively promoting the strategic benefits delivered by Palm District Cooling's (PDC) hi-tech cooling solution.

With recent studies by Middle East Economic Digest (Meed) predicting the regional market to grow by up to 8.3 million tonnes of refrigeration (TR) by 2015 from just 1.8 million TR in 2007, PDC has devised a long-term growth plan and complementary awareness campaign to promote district cooling as an economical solution for the region's increasing air conditioning requirements.

PDC currently provides district cooling services to a significant number of prestigious mega developments in the UAE, including the Gardens Residential Complex (25,000 TR), Jumeirah Islands (15,000 TR), Discovery Gardens (126,000 TR) and Palm Jumeirah Trunk (126,000 TR).

Several developers all over the region are likewise increasingly deploying PDC's cost-efficient and environmentally friendly district cooling solutions, according to a company spokesperson.

'Palm District Cooling is focusing its efforts on creating a sustainable development plan that will help us overcome the ongoing economic challenges and maintain our long-term growth prospects,' said Shafiq Khoori, managing director, PDC.

'Our new growth strategy ultimately aims to help our clients improve utility costs and maximise energy efficiency, which is one of the most important concerns among developers right now.'

Wherever water resources are scarce and expensive, PDC utilises Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) supplied by Palm Water (PW) – a strategic collaboration that results in reduced energy consumption, ultimately benefiting end-users and the entire community through lower utility costs and minimal environmental impact.-TradeArabia News Service
