International Sports Park City
Pioneering a state-of-the-art district cooling and heating system.
The Vision
As a world-class integrated development with commercial, residential and leisure spaces, Chengdu’s International Sports Park City had the potential to become a sustainable urban space that aligned with China’s green ambitions. SP’s expertise in district cooling provided the opportunity to deliver comfort within the complex while reducing its carbon footprint.
Our Solution
SP will design, build, own and operate a state-of-the-art district cooling and heating system for the International Sports Park City. When operational in 2025, the solution will enable the complex to enjoy greater energy efficiency of over 30 per cent for cooling and over 50 per cent for heating. This translates to annual savings of 2,900 Megawatt-hour of electricity and reduction of 1,700 tonnes in carbon emissions.
The sustainable cooling solution will be enhanced with an ice thermal energy storage system that will strengthen the system’s reliability and performance. This is SP’s first deployment in China of such a system, where thermal energy is stored in the form of ice when electricity demand is low and discharged, when necessary, to provide uninterrupted chilled water supply for cooling services. With an installed cooling capacity of 9,800 refrigeration tonnes, this project will be SP’s largest district cooling system in Chengdu, China.
