  1. A Brief History On District Cooling Technology

  2. The DCS involves using a single outside source to fulfil the heating and cooling requirements of small systems and entire cities. Here are some of its advantages: • Safe and reliable • Reduced emissions • Greater fuel flexibility- allows for the usage of alternative fuels like biomass or waste

  3. Today, let us take a closer look at the history of the district cooling energy systems. Roman hypocausts are the earliest examples of these systems. In this, a type of hot-air furnace was used for heating buildings nearby. For eg the three temples at Carnuntum(Vienna).

  4. By the year 1322, the city fathers of Chaudes Aigues- a small town in southern France, started levying taxes on houses which used the heat from natural hot springs channelled through open trenches dug in the rock. The district heating system introduced in London in 1622 by Dutch polymath Cornelius Drebbel was supposedly inspired by the system in France.

  5. Bonnemain, a french engineer used hot water to heat many big residences and in 1785, this system was adapted to provide heating to 3 large buildings in St Petersburg. • In 1877, the first commercial system created by Birdsill Holy made its appearance in New York. • Denver’s Colorado Automatic Refrigerator company introduced the first district cooling system in late 1889. • Middle East district cooling systems existed as early as 1960’s. Central chilled water plants were used in the old Beirut airport and the American University of Beirut.

  6. Cut chase to the present, the district cooling market is expected to grow to USD 47.64 billion in 2028. The GCC region is projected to be the major market for district cooling systems due to its hot climate. The sustainable and eco-friendly working principles of the district cooling system give it a distinct advantage over traditional methods of cooling. Thus by 2030, Dubai city aims to complete 40% of its cooling requirements with the help of DCS.
