Download or read book District Cooling written by Alaa A. Olama and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DISTRICT COOLING: THEORY and PRACTICE provides a unique study of an energy cogeneration system, set up to bring chilled water to buildings (offices, apartment houses, and factories) needing cooling for air conditioning and refrigeration. In winter, the source for the cooling can often be sea water, so it is a cheaper resource than using electricity to run compressors for cooling. The related technology of District Heating has been an established engineering practice for many years, but District Cooling is a relatively new technology now being implemented in various parts of the world, including the USA, Arab Emirates and Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia. Existing books in the area are scarce, and do not address many of the crucial issues facing nations with high overall air temperatures, many of which are developing District Cooling plans using sea water. DISTRICT COOLING: THEORY & PRACTICE integrates the theory behind district cooling planning with the practical engineering approaches, so it can serve the policy makers, engineers, and planners whose efforts have to be coordinated and closely managed to make such systems effective and affordable. In times of rising worldwide temperatures, District Cooling is a way to provide needed cooling with energy conservation and sustainability. This book will be the most up-to-date and comprehensive study on the subject, with Case Studies describing real projects in detail.

Download or read book District Cooling A Sustainable Solution for Energy Efficiency written by Charles Nehme and published by Charles Nehme. This book was released on with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embracing Sustainable Cooling Solutions In an era where environmental concerns have taken center stage, the need for sustainable practices has become more pressing than ever before. As the global population continues to grow, so does the demand for cooling solutions to combat rising temperatures and provide comfort in various settings. However, traditional cooling methods have often come at a considerable cost to the environment, consuming substantial amounts of energy and contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. Amidst this challenge, a promising alternative has emerged: district cooling. This innovative approach to cooling not only addresses the environmental impact of traditional cooling systems but also offers numerous benefits in terms of energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and urban planning. The concept of district cooling revolves around the centralized production and distribution of chilled water or air, serving multiple buildings within a given area. Rather than relying on individual cooling units in each building, district cooling utilizes a network of pipes to transport chilled water or air from a central plant to connected buildings, providing a more efficient and sustainable cooling solution. By consolidating the cooling process, district cooling reduces energy consumption, minimizes greenhouse gas emissions, and optimizes the use of resources. This book aims to delve into the world of district cooling, exploring its principles, applications, and transformative potential. Whether you are an engineer, an urban planner, an energy consultant, or simply someone interested in sustainable technologies, this book will serve as a comprehensive guide to understanding the fundamental concepts and practical aspects of district cooling. Throughout these pages, we will explore the key components of district cooling systems, including central plants, distribution networks, and building connections. We will delve into the technical aspects, discussing the various chilling methods, heat rejection techniques, and control systems that optimize the efficiency of district cooling. Furthermore, we will examine case studies from different regions and climates, highlighting successful implementations of district cooling in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. In addition to its environmental benefits, district cooling offers economic advantages. We will explore the financial aspects of district cooling, discussing the cost savings it can generate for building owners and operators. We will also examine the potential for integration with renewable energy sources, such as solar or geothermal, further enhancing the sustainability and resilience of district cooling systems. As we progress through the chapters, it is important to acknowledge that district cooling is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Each region and project presents unique challenges and opportunities. Therefore, this book will also address the planning considerations, regulatory frameworks, and implementation strategies needed to successfully deploy district cooling systems. By the end of this book, it is our hope that readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of district cooling and its potential to revolutionize the way we approach cooling in the built environment. We invite you to embark on this journey, exploring the cutting-edge technologies and innovative practices that can shape a more sustainable and comfortable future for our cities. Let us embrace district cooling as a catalyst for change, ushering in an era of sustainable cooling solutions that safeguard our planet for generations to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report identifies modern district energy as the most effective approach for many cities to transition to sustainable heating and cooling, by improving energy efficiency and enabling higher shares of renewables. This publication is one of the first reports to provide concrete policy, finance and technology best-practice recommendations on addressing the heating and cooling sectors in cities through energy efficiency improvements and the integration of renewables, both of which are central to the energy transition. These recommendations have been developed in collaboration with 45 champion cities, all of which use district energy, with 11 of them using it to achieve 100 per cent renewables or carbon-neutral targets.

Download or read book Deep Energy Retrofit Guide for Public Buildings written by Rüdiger Lohse and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides detailed information on how to set up Deep Energy Retrofits (DERs) in public buildings, and shares in-depth insights into the current status of the major technologies, strategies and practical best practice examples of how to cost-effectively combine them. Case studies from Europe are analyzed with respect to energy use before and after renovation, reasons for undertaking the renovation, co-benefits achieved, resulting cost-effectiveness, and the business models employed. The building sector holds the potential for tremendous improvements in terms of energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions, and energy retrofits to the existing building stock represent a significant opportunity in the transition to a low-carbon future. Moreover, investing in highly efficient building materials and systems can replace long-term energy imports, contribute to cost cutting, and create a wealth of new jobs. Yet, while the technologies needed in order to improve energy efficiency are readily available, significant progress has not yet been made, and “best practices” for implementing building technologies and renewable energy sources are still relegated to small “niche” applications. Offering essential information on Deep Energy Retrofits, the book offers a valuable asset for architects, public authorities, project developers, and engineers alike.
