AVK Valves in multiple District Cooling Plants in UAE

Success story of AVK valves in multiple district cooling plants in the UAE.

District cooling has a major role to play in an energy efficient future.

Energy use for space cooling in buildings by conventional air condition has more than tripled since 1990, making space cooling the fastest growing energy use in buildings, leading to a steep increase in C02 emissions, up to 1,130 million tonnes globally — a major environmental impact.

District cooling can save around 50 percent of electricity, therefore reduce the pressure on local power grid, which in turn helps reduce power production and saves on power plant capacities. 
AVK InterApp Butterfly valves were selected for supply to several DCP’s (District Cooling Plant), Networks, ETS (Energy Transfer System) rooms during last few years.

AVK was successful in securing the contract for supply of valves to District Cooling Plant at Jumeirah Village Circle JVC build for build 49,600 TR (ton of refrigeration).
