Lower Capital Costs
If your building is still in the planning stage, initial costs can be
significantly reduced through elimination of the building's own central plant.
If your building is already operational, District Energy can help finance
upgrades to make it operate more profitably.
Lower Energy Costs
Since you are not using chillers, cooling towers and pumps to produce your own
chilled water, your energy costs can be substantially decreased. Also,
District Energy’s 34 degree supply water temperature allows additional
air-side energy savings.
Lower Operations and
Maintenance Costs
It’s simple- elimination of chillers, pumps and cooling towers mean fewer
systems to maintain and less chance of breakdown.
Stable, Competitive Energy Rates
It’s a fact- buildings utilizing District Cooling enjoy a variance in peak
electricity demand of only 2% between winter and summer. By eliminating the
source of normal demand “spikes” (chillers, cooling tower fans and condenser
water pumps), your energy rates are reduced and your energy bills become more
stable and predictable.
More Revenue – Generating Leasable
Space
A conventional air conditioning system requires as much as 10,000 square feet
of space. With District Energy, you can allocate an area of only 15 feet by 15
feet, or about 225 square feet.
Reliable Cooling
It’s a common truth. Simple is better. With fewer moving parts, less machinery
on-site and the elegant simplicity of District Energy’s ice storage and
chilled water network distribution, you’ll be able to count on stable,
reliable cooling, day and night.
A Cleaner Environment
No CFC’s, cooling towers or water treatment chemicals mean less pollution both
inside and outside your building. Your tenants breathe cleaner air and you
avoid the “refrigerant compliance” paperwork, regulations and bureaucracy
associated with conventional systems.
