Future-proof district heating and cooling in the district

Full steam ahead towards climate neutrality: six QUANTUM Power units from ENGIE Refrigeration ensure the supply of district cooling and heating in a district in Barcelona.
 

 

  • In a district project in Barcelona, six QUANTUM Power chillers are impressing with their high performance and energy efficiency in the generation of district cooling and heating.

  • They are helping to make the district with 134 buildings and a 22-kilometer district cooling and heating network fit for the future.

District cooling and district heating are key drivers of the energy transition - especially when they are generated by highly energy-efficient and reliable chillers. Our team of experts demonstrated in a project in Barcelona that our QUANTUM Power is the perfect choice for supplying district cooling and heating networks in a district. This comprises a district with 134 buildings that are connected to a 22-kilometer-long district cooling and heating network. The energy required for the network is provided by our QUANTUM Power chillers. At intervals of around six years, we initially supplied two and then a further four of our systems to Spain's second largest city. In addition, our cooling and heating experts are responsible for individually tailored services to guarantee the long-term operational reliability of the solution in the district.

District cooling and heating at a high level
What makes our QUANTUM Power particularly special when it comes to district cooling and heating for the district in Barcelona? Definitely the high cooling capacity of the model, which reaches up to 8,500 kilowatts. In addition to the performance of our chiller, its 
energy efficiency is crucial for the comprehensive supply of the 22-kilometer-long district cooling and heating network. This is particularly important in large sizes in the megawatt range. Thanks to its innovative compressor design, QUANTUM Power also achieves high full-load and part-load EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) values. At the same time, the customer benefits from low energy costs when generating district cooling and district heating. Thanks to the modular machine design, the system can be adapted to any requirement and guarantees a high level of operational reliability. In short: QUANTUM Power is perfect for supplying district cooling and heating networks in neighborhoods - and beyond.
