As part of its activities, the conference presented working papers that addressed the most prominent changes and developments in the industry, and the future perspectives for the renewable and clean energy.
Ahmad Bin Shafar, CEO of Empower, member of IDEA Board of Directors and Chairman of the Association of District Cooling Operators Dubai, said, “The IDEA Campus Energy conference is an important opportunity to exchange experiences between key players in the district cooling and energy industry from around the world, as it provides direct access to energy professionals on the globe. This year’s agenda was full of in-depth panel discussions on the current and future energy trends and technologies. It also helps shape a more resilient, efficient, and low-carbon future for energy systems in universities, healthcare providers, and research centers, in addition to developing effective strategies to conserve and improve water resources and reimagine their relationship to energy”.
