District cooling company Emirates Central Cooling Corporation (Empower) has signed a contract with Vanderweil Engineers to carry out the design and supervision of the distribution pipeline network for its district cooling plant at The Lagoons.
The district cooling plant will provide 300,000 refrigeration tonnes (RT) to the 6.5 million m2 waterfront project that is being developed by Sama Dubai in an area adjacent to the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.
Protection of the environment is a key component of the development, which will encompass a large number of parks and green belts, and will feature reduced density housing and building heights in the ecologically sensitive buffer zone.
Bin Shafar said: “We are committed to supporting energy conservation and environmentally friendly systems and methods as part of our mission to provide energy efficient services for supporting Dubai’s economic development.”
“In all the projects that we undertake, we seek to establish partnerships with industry leaders who boast an outstanding track record in performance schedules.”
“With their commitment to endorsing global quality standards, we are confident that Vanderweil Engineers will effectively match the requirements demanded by an ambitious project such as The Lagoons.”
