Saudi Arabia, January 16, 2018:  HVACR Expo Saudi (14-16 January 2018 at the Jeddah Centre for Forums & Events) has hosted the first ever EU – Saudi Arabia Energy Efficiency Meeting, and seen the successful product launch of Samsung’s 68% energy saving cooling system. 

The topic of HVACR has been heating up in Saudi Arabia since the outset of 2018 due to a combination of increasing power/fuel tariffs, growing public awareness, and a strengthened sense of responsibility that is sweeping the globe. Facing a new paradigm in their industry, thousands of HVACR professionals have already visited the Jeddah Centre for Forums & Events over the first two days of Saudi’s largest dedicated indoor climate and refrigeration event, HVACR Expo Saudi.

Having played host to the successful launch of the world’s first Wind-FreeTM air-conditioner by Samsung, HVACR Expo Saudi will continue to bring together the most innovative HVACR solutions and equipment from over 80 local and international manufacturers until 16 January 2018. Samsung’s Wind-FreeTM Cooling technology is spreading the efficiency buzz by saving up to 68% of energy.

With the same targets in mind, Carrier in Saudi Arabia offers a wide portfolio of sustainable products and services, thanks to Carrier’s global R&D investments aimed at advancing energy efficiency and sustainability. The reputable brand are presenting the Carrier® AquaForce® 30XV air-cooled variable-speed screw chiller – delivering industry leading efficiency ratings.

The company have a keen focus towards guaranteeing product performance in compliance with local, regional and international specifications and standards for operating performance, cooling capacity, energy efficiency, airflow, noise level and durability. 

“Energy efficiency and sustainability is a growing concern all over the world for apparent reasons. In a region like the Middle East, with its extreme temperatures and where HVACR is essential, it is even more important to have adequate standards and regulations in place to keep energy consumption at a reasonable level,” says Markus Lattner, Director of Eurovent Middle East and speaker at the first ever EU – Saudi Arabia Energy Efficiency Meeting which opened HVACR Expo Saudi earlier this week. 

A focus on the standardization of HVACR systems in Saudi Arabia remains on the agenda throughout the exhibition, being a hot topic in the schedule of free-to-attend CPD (continued professional development) certified workshops. The remaining sessions will feature topics from the latest solutions for Smart & Sustainable Buildings, Dedicated outdoor Air Systems, and Green Technology HVAC Systems.

CPD Speaker and Chief Consultant of the Protecooling Division of Suhaimi Design, Mohamed R. Zackariah foresees that in order “to sustain in the emerging market, field professionals need to be strong in their basics while keeping themselves abreast of the latest and innovative developments in the industry. Attending conferences are always great to raise yourself to the required level of awareness and expertise.”
