Smart District Cooling Solution

District cooling is a centralized cooling model that delivers chilled water from a dedicated plant to multiple buildings through a network of insulated pipes. It’s a key solution for sustainable urban development, offering greater efficiency than traditional cooling systems. However, ensuring its performance requires robust monitoring, control, and optimization across every layer of the system — from plant operations to customer delivery points.
Our solution empowers district cooling operators with real-time visibility, intelligent analytics, and centralized control. It addresses critical challenges such as Delta T degradation, energy overconsumption, and in efficient load management. By integrating PLC/SCADA systems, IoT sensors, smart metering, and cloud-based analytics, we enable smarter decisions, automated control, and improved operational reliability across the entire cooling infrastructure.

Benefits

Our solution monitors and controls the entire plant operation — from chillers and primary pumps to cooling towers and electrical panels. It enables real-time tracking of critical KPIs like COP, kW/TR, power factor, and Delta T. Intelligent load distribution algorithms help optimize chiller sequencing, reduce peak energy usage, and improve equipment lifespan. We integrate PLC and SCADA platforms for full automation, supported by historical data trends and predictive maintenance for key equipment.

The insulated pipeline network is monitored through flow meters, pressure sensors, andtemperature points to ensure reliable water distribution and loss detection. Our solutionprovides a hydraulic overview of the entire network, detects anomalies such as leaks orabnormal pressure drops, and ensures proper balancing across connected buildings.GIS integration allows operators to visualize pipeline segments, monitor real-timestatus, and plan interventions accurately.

ETS rooms are critical interfaces betweenthe district network and end-user buildings. Our system ensures accurate BTUmetering, monitors differential temperature (Delta T), and controls secondarypumps and valves. Alarms are triggered for low Delta T, reverse flow, orabnormal consumption patterns. Historical consumption trends and live data fromETS devices enable utilities to bill accurately, optimize delivery, and engagein proactive service.
