Energy Management Services (EMS), the Middle East’s leading energy management and Conservation Company, has signed an agreement with Al Bateen Investment Co. to incorporate energy-saving and environment-friendly engineering solutions at the design phase of the Al Bateen Tower in Dubai which will not only lead to major savings in the project’s capital and operational costs, but also makes the tower a green building.
EMS will provide value engineering analysis, monitor implementation and designing services of recommended state-of-the-art energy efficient equipment, insulation and heat recovery systems in the Al Bateen Tower. These systems will bring a competitive edge to the project, reducing the building’s capital costs by AED 8 million and cutting down its annual operational costs by AED 700,000.
“In today’s environment-conscious world, it is not enough for us to construct multi-storied buildings with the latest infrastructure facilities; we have to make sure that these buildings are environment friendly by adopting various energy and water saving technologies. Our investment in the recommended energy reduction and conservation solutions of EMS reflects our genuine commitment to conserve energy and significantly save on the overall costs of the project,” said Kamel Mohammadiah, Engineering Director, Al Bateen Investment Co.
Khaled Bushnaq, Managing Director, EMS said: “The implementation of energy value engineering solutions in the prestigious Al Bateen Tower demonstrates the confidence high-profile builders have in EMS’ energy-efficient systems and in our expertise to design and install these state-of-the-art technologies. We hope the Al Bateen Tower project will compel other developers to adopt similar solutions, helping them to enjoy the benefits of reduced building and operational costs.
“We look forward to extending our partnership with Al Bateen Investment Co. by working on similar implementations for future projects of the company. There has been a growing awareness on the use of energy saving products in the region, which has seen an increased adoption of EMS’ solutions that offer real savings to business organisations and allow residents to lead healthy, sustainable and environment-friendly lifestyles. With the savings achieved, developers can utilize these amounts in making investments in parks and gardens,” Bushnaq added.
