District cooling systems have become the preferred infrastructure solution
due to enhanced energy efficiency, scalable water conservation technolo-
gies and the advantages of space and capital savings for end users.

When properly designed and operated, district energy systems allow
customer buildings to be optimized mechanically and architecturally while
also mitigating their carbon footprint through advanced controls and load
management, setting the stage for a more sustainable city.
