The initiative was launched to promote district cooling solutions in developing cities around the world. It is one of the most prominent partners-supporting initiative that aims to increase the use of district cooling systems around the world in a bid to boost energy efficiency, reduce harmful emissions, enhance local and regional economies, and cherish the social and environmental benefits of district cooling systems.
Participants reviewed the key achievements accomplished within the framework of the initiative over the past year.
