Doha: Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa) represented by Director of District Cooling Services Department, Eng. Abdulaziz Al Hammadi visited the ‘Energy Center’ of Al Rayyan Stadium, a venue of FIFA World Cup 2022 accompanied by a number of the Department’s engineers.
The visit came in conjunction with the ongoing preparations for hosting the Amir Cup Final, and in continuation of Kahramaa’s vital role in equipping the stadiums with the latest systems and technologies.
Kahramaa is one of the most important institutions sponsoring and supporting the organizing committee of the FIFA World Cup 2022.
Al Rayyan stadium uses district cooling (DC) technology through a central station with a cooling capacity of 16,000 tonnes, and the station distributes chilled water to the stadium through a power station, and from there to a large number of air treatment units distributed in the stadium to ensure the required temperature for the fan stands area and the floor of the stadium.
The station relies on environmentally friendly materials in the construction process, follows the standards of sustainability of water resources by equipping it with a technology that allows treated wastewater to be used directly for cooling purposes, and the treated water is also used to irrigate green spaces in Al Rayyan Stadium park and its facilities.
