Organized by dmg events, HVAC R Expo will take place again alongside The Big 5 – the largest and most influential building and construction event in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia.

Given the increasing number of hotels, resorts, residential and office buildings within the region, the demand for HVAC equipment and services is soaring in the commercial sector, with district cooling systems, smart HVAC systems and renewable energy being the driving force. The surge in the Middle East sector is attributed to the rapid infrastructural development in the region, led by Saudi Arabia’s pipeline of planned and unawarded projects valued at $1.2 trillion.

The planned giga- projects in the pipeline include: NEOM, Amaala, The Red Sea Development Project, and Jeddah Economic City in Saudi Arabia alongside, Mina Rashid Redevelopment and Hartland Sanctuary at Mohammed Bin Rashid City in the pipeline in the UAE.

Despite the fast growth in motion across the region, Saudi Arabia and UAE are actively committed to accelerating their pursuit of a net zero carbon future, and to reducing dependency on their oil and gas sectors through strategies, digital technologies, urban smart master planning and collaboration with key stakeholders, ultimately increasing demand for energy-efficient HVAC systems to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.

“We have developed this event as a knowledge exchange avenue, and a platform to explore the latest sustainable technological HVAC R product innovations set to tackle 21st century industry concerns, including efficiency, conservation, and recovery systems, “commented Josine Heijmans, Vice President Construction, dmg events.
