District Cooling Power & Cost savings
Description
Involves the provision of cooling for multiple buildings
or facilities from one or more central plant via a pipe network.
District
Cooling
History
Large District Cooling applications started in the 1930s for
the Rockefeller Center and United States Capitol Complex.

Extract from MEW R-6
“HVAC design report shall include detailed feasibility study highlighting energy savings potential and cost
effectiveness over a 30 year life for plant and equipment”
Suggested incentives to achieve cost effectiveness
Passover some of the savings by Government to the DC Provider
Pass over some of the capital savings by:
Covering cost of chilled water pipe installation (same as other piped
utilities)
Provide land (as for sub-stations)
Set chilled water generation charges based on ‘unsubsidized rates’ with
incentives linked to production efficiencies

EXCERPTS FROM LATEST MEW/R-6 REGULATION (2010)
• Clause 8.5 Use of Partial Cool Storage (Chilled Water Storage)
“Building with part-day occupancy pattern and chilled water systems servingbuilding peak load of 100 RT or above, partial cool storage is mandatory.Some examples of building with part-day occupancy are: commercial offices,community centers, schools, public offices, banks, games and sportscenters, gymnasiums, clubs etc.”

why District Cooling?
• Larger chiller plant better efficiency (less power)
• Better energy management through better qualified staff
• Reduces building construction cost by removing central plant and improving building net-to-gross efficiency
• Can help improve building aesthetics
• Allows End User to better focus on core business.
• Less noise generation

District Cooling Power & Cost savings
Incentive Factors
• Pass over savings in central plant and building costs by the developer to the DC Provider (capacity and connection charges)
• Pass over running costs savings (operation, maintenance, consumables)
• Introduce Government incentives to offset capital costs –
allow integration of DC plants within multistory car parks or provide land
allow incentive schemes based on DC plant efficiencies (KW/TR)

Study
• Match capacity of the central chiller plant with the buildings
• Select pipe sizes & material based on economical factors
• Match Primary & Secondary flow arrangements (variable flow)
• Install controls with good response times
• Provide thermal storage to help operate plant at optimum condition
• Maintain highest Chilled water ΔT possible
• Maintain highest chilled water flow temperature possible
• Use high efficiency motors
• Consider Variable speed cooling tower fans
• Use Water conservation and backwash recovery
