Tabreed partners with Govt of Telangana to set up Asia's largest district cooling project in Hyderabad

The first-of-its-kind, ground-breaking initiative will bring multi-fold benefits through integration of highly reliable solutions, superior cost-efficiency, and unprecedented economies of scale, resulting in 6,800 GWh of power savings and 41,600 mega litres of water savings, and paving the way for reduced greenhouse gas emissions by saving 6.2 million tons of CO2 over the project lifetime.

Government of Telangana has partnered with Tabreed, a global cooling utilities company, to develop cooling infrastructure for industrial and commercial parks to reshape the cooling landscape in India. 

Starting with the award of the largest district cooling Public-Private Partnership (PPP) project in Asia for Hyderabad Pharma City (HPC), Tabreed will develop 125,000 RT of district cooling plants and networks, investing up to $200 million to provide more sustainable long term cooling services through a utility cooling as a service model for process cooling and storage requirements of industrial units.
 

The first-of-its-kind, ground-breaking initiative will bring multi-fold benefits through integration of highly reliable solutions, superior cost-efficiency, and unprecedented economies of scale, resulting in 6,800 GWh of power savings and 41,600 mega litres of water savings, and paving the way for reduced greenhouse gas emissions by saving 6.2 million tons of CO2 over the project lifetime. This pioneering endeavour is set to revolutionize the pharmaceutical industry's cooling practices, contributing to a cleaner and greener environment for various bulk drug manufacturing facilities.

Government of Telangana also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Tabreed to explore district cooling infrastructure in existing and upcoming commercial districts of Cyberabad and other mixed use development areas which offer potential to reduce over 200 MW of peak electricity demand resulting in CO2 reduction of 18 million tons over a 30 year period while mitigating heat island effect that will further bolster Hyderabad’s position as one of the best cities to live and work in Asia.
