A CRITICAL REVIEW ON EFFICIENCY OF INTEGRATED DISTRICT COOLING SYSTEMS FOR SUSTAINABLE SMART CITIES

Jessy Mercy Paul

Abstract


The cities consume an average of 75% of overall natural resources, worldwide energy production and contribute to about 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions. As a solution to this, a smart city is built through combination of various factors: Sustainability, Quality of life, urbanisation and smartness. One of the critical factors of smart cities are solution to local problems. The energy consumption is reduced by using integrated renewable systems. District cooling system in smart cities is one way out. This paper represents an approach to reduce the overall energy consumption by integrated district cooling systems with smart grid and sustainability. The energy systems that has DCS integrated with CCHP systems typically pair with DHS to satisfy the city’s need for heating and cooling - DCS systems as a supplementary for area’s cooling requirement and integrated systems in places heating is predominant.
