ASHRAE SOCIETY is committed to the promotion & furtherance of the art and science of HVAC & R globally and ASC is doing its part in the local scene. The present focus of ASHRAE Society is the "R" part of the industry.
In line with the Society's direction, ASC is organizing a Technical Tour to Singapore District Cooling Pte Ltd's District Cooling Plant which is located within the ORQ (One Raffles Quay) development. This event is kindly hosted by Mr. Tey Peng Kee , Managing Director of Singapore District Cooling Pte Ltd .
District cooling is the centralised production of chilled water for supply to the various buildings for air-conditioning purposes. It is a utility business like electricity and water.
District C ooling was identified as a new urban utility desirable for Marina South New Downtown in 1997. S ingapore District Cooling Pte Ltd (S DC ), a joint venture between Singapore Power and Dalkia, was incorporated in 2000 to implement the district cooling system .
SDC's first district cooling plant is located within the One Raffles Quay (ORQ) development. The plant has been in operation since May 2006. SDC is planning a second district cooling plant within the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort D evelopment. The two plants will be interconnected via a chilled water network installed within the Common Services Tunnels in the new downtown .
The highlights of the technical tour include:
1) A briefing on the merits of district cooling;
2) Special features of chillers, thermal storage system and cooling towers employed in the plant;
3) Technical scheme for supply connection and commercial arrangement; and
4) Contribution by district cooling toward energy efficiency for air-conditioning in buildings.
