DUBAI, UAE, 19 February 2020: With sustainability, energy efficiency and flexibility forming the basis of modern HVACR solutions, Eurovent Middle East has announced the next three events under its ‘HVACR Leadership Workshop’ banner, namely ‘Building Retrofits’, ‘Reducing the Energy Bill: Cold Storage’ and ‘Effective Data Centre Cooling Strategies’, as scheduled to take place in Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the coming months.

Making the announcement through a release, Eurovent said the building retrofit event will take place on March 4 at the Falcon Ballroom, Le Meridien Dubai Hotel and Conference Centre. Retrofitting of HVACR systems have proven to be cost-effective alternatives to improve reliability, energy efficiency and flexibility of the systems to the benefit of the building owner through cost savings, Return-On-Investment (ROI) and improved comfort for the building occupants, Eurovent said. The seminars, it added, aim to deliver an understanding of the principles behind the technologies that can be used to achieve the benefits.

According to the release, the second event, relating to cold chain, will take place on March 9 at the Cold Chain Pavilion, at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. The workshop will be organised as a side event to the first Cold Chain Middle East Expo, Eurovent said. In a region such as the GCC, where most fresh food items are imported, it is of vital importance to ensure that the food cold chain remains uncompromised in a sustainable and cost-effective manner to the benefit of stakeholders and consumers, Eurovent said. Industry experts, it added, will provide insight on technologies and strategies to reduce energy consumption in the food cold chain.

The third event, on data centre cooling, will take place on April 13 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, Eurovent revealed. To be held in cooperation with the Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI), the workshop will be part of a Pre-Event Masterclass to the BICSI EMEA Conference and Exhibition, Eurovent said. The seminar aims to deliver an understanding of the technology behind data centres to enable exact specifications and mechanisms for increasing reliability and improving energy efficiency, which Eurovent described as key aspects in effective data centre cooling strategies.

According to the release, registration will open two weeks in advance of the events at www.eurovent.me.
