Trigeneration power generation and cooling will form the agenda for an upcoming summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Organised by India-based Nispana, the second annual Kingdom District Cooling & Trigeneration Summit will take place on May 4 and 5.

Trigeneration installations have a proven track record for efficiency and power saving across Asia, Europe and America with some countries fulfilling from 30 per cent to over 50 per cent of their national power generation needs with CHP (combined heat and power).

Saudi Arabia has planned over $3 trillion of developmental projects scheduled to begin construction across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by 2020. The kingdom is now looking at more sustainable, energy efficient and cost effective methods of cooling.

Trigeneration play a vital role in energy efficiency and emission reductions. These technologies are also important because of their versatility they can increase the efficiencies of renewable as well as fossil fuel energy sources, and are suited for small, medium and large-scale applications. – TradeArabia News Service
