Black & White undertook the master planning of the electrical and district cooling utilities distribution for Sheikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Gardens, a city planned for a population of 600,000.
The project necessitated strategic review of the master plan to identify electrical and district cooling ‘load centres’ to determine optimum locations for district cooling plants and sub-stations to economise on distribution network losses and infrastructure CapEx.
Black & White’s intent was to provide distributed cooling that would grow at the pace of the development to avoid over-commitment within infrastructure planning and capital investment.
