District cooling services provider Empower has awarded Dh60 million contracts for network expansion in Dubai’s Business Bay area and International Media Production Zone (IMPZ).

The contract includes Dh41m worth network expansion work by Wade Adams and Dh19m contract to supply pre- insulated pipes and fittings by Elips.

Construction work will involve the extension of Empower’s chilled water network to new buildings in Al Habtoor City, via the company’s facilities in Business Bay, and IMPZ. The two projects have a total length of 6km of chilled water network, and are expected to be completed by January and May 2015, respectively.

“Both projects expand Empower’s geographic scope, customer reach and are investments that meets the increasing demand for our services,” said Ahmad Bin Shafar, CEO, Empower.

The project involves the supply of district cooling services to retail, commercial and residential developments like the St. Regis Hotel, W Hotel, and Westin Dubai in Al Habtoor City, as well as Me’aisem City Centre, Dubai National Investment Company staff accommodation building and Makateb building in IMPZ.

Once Empower links its network to the new buildings, it will add an estimated 30,000 Refrigeration Tonnes (RT) capacity to its plants in both areas.
