Evo Energy Technologies has completed a transformative energy plant upgrade at Cook & Phillip Park Aquatic Centre, in partnership with the City of Sydney. This project, driven by the need for enhanced energy efficiency, features a 250kW Agenitor 406 Cogeneration (CHP) unit, complemented by EvoHeat CS-GEN2 high-efficiency heat pumps and Evoheat Ultra Chillers. The initiative is set to significantly reduce energy consumption and costs, bolstering the centre's commitment to environmental sustainability.
The Cook & Phillip Park Aquatic Centre upgrade, aimed at enhancing the facility’s sustainability and operational efficiency, revolves around several key installations. The 250kW Agenitor 406 Cogeneration unit is a vital component of this project, designed to boost the centre's energy efficiency and lower energy costs. This CHP engine effectively utilises excess heat from electricity generation for heating the Olympic-sized pool, maximising the use of energy resources.
Accompanying the cogeneration unit are the EvoHeat CS-GEN2 high-efficiency heat pumps and Evoheat Ultra Chillers. This technology allows the Olympic-sized pool to be heated effectively with minimal cost, utilising the excess heat generated from the air-conditioning system. Notably, the efficiency of the Evo Ultra units meant that often only one of the two installed units was required to meet the centre’s heating needs, surpassing the effectiveness of the previous 250kW air source chiller.
This upgrade at Cook & Phillip Park Aquatic Centre demonstrates Evo Energy Technologies' ability to effectively combine multiple energy-saving technologies. The project's success, recognised through multiple awards at the National SPASA Awards, showcases our commitment to developing sustainable, cost-effective solutions for large-scale facilities.
