Ever since Tabreed was commissioned by the UAE Government to construct a district cooling plant in Suweihan in the late 1990s, the company has continued to play a vital role in enabling the nation’s economic development by providing pioneering cooling solutions to key infrastructure projects - first in the UAE, and later, across the GCC.In the UAE, during the peak summer months, air-conditioning typically accounts for 70% of energy consumption. By utilizing approximately 50% less energy, district cooling helps reduce costs to owners and governments alike, while also protecting the environment by decreasing carbon dioxide emissions.
