Zayed Military City is the largest district cooling development ever undertaken. It comprises 7 schemes in total to provide the contracted 90,000 tons of cooling across the military complex. Each scheme, not only increases the efficiency of cooling for the complex, but also elicits a reduction of 60% of power generated in the grid. This equals around 100MW less power generation required, which is more than what a small Power Station produces. The use of natural gas in powering the plants also means that potential carbon dioxide emissions are reduced by 74% from air-conditioning Zayed Military City.
Located near Zayed Sports City, the scheme offers cooling services to the following clients:Zayed Military Hospital, Al Bateen Air Base, Diabetic Center, ID Building, Al Noor Hospital and the General Pension & Social Security Authority Building.Further customers across the Zayed Sports City area can be supplied to ultimately increase the facility's contracted capacity to over 22,000 refrigerating tons.
