CPD Webinar - Chiller Replacement Project at Nina Tower

This webinar is organised by the Hong Kong Green Building Council.

The First Zero-Carbon Chiller System Project in Hong Kong at Nina Tower set a new benchmark for chiller plant replacement projects on energy efficiency and carbon neutrality to counter climate change. This project replaced 7 nos. of traditional air-cooled chillers, into an advanced water-cooled system adopting HFO refrigerant. This transformation results in over 50% reduction in electricity consumption and reduces approximately 7,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually.

Multiple advanced technologies have been adopted in this project, including Multi-trade Integrated Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MiMEP) for streamlining project execution, Vertical District Cooling System for enhancing system reliability, Building Information Modelling (BIM) for enhancing project coordination and lifecycle management, and Digital Twins for facilitating real-time monitoring and optimisation via Artificial Intelligence, significantly enhancing energy saving and system resilience.

The project also underscores the importance of Green Electricity Certificates sourced from renewable energy, ensuring the entire cooling system operates on zero-carbon principles. This initiative aligns with Climate Action Plan 2050, targeting substantial reductions in operational carbon intensity by 2030. In this talk, the innovative design of the system, its construction approach and strategies on operation will be discussed.
