Abdali District Cooling.
Centralised urban cooling for the new Al-Abdali district in Amman.
Urban cooling for a district that cannot waste water
APINA designed and supplied the district cooling system of the new Al-Abdali district in Amman (Jordan): the full design in a first phase (2010–2012) and the equipment supply in a second (2015–2016).
A centralised cooling plant with 80,000 m³ of thermal storage, ammonia equipment and APINA's own dry condensers, to cut peak electricity consumption with environmentally friendly technology.
Why it's unique
Zero water consumption
Air-cooled chillers: decisive in Amman, where water is a very scarce resource.
Ammonia (R717)
High-efficiency natural refrigerant, with no impact on the ozone layer.
Thermal storage
80,000 m³ of storage to shift consumption to off-peak hours and lower the peak.
