The Shanghai Disney Resort Management Company recently announced an agreement to adopt a leading new environmental technology to supply the resort with heating, cooling and compressed air, thereby increasing the overall energy efficiency of the resort by three times and ensuring the resort¡¯s efficient and environmentally-friendly operations. The utilities will be co-generated by a Combined Cooling and Heating Plant, to be built and operated on the resort site by the Shanghai International Tourism and Resort Zone New Energy Company Limited, a joint venture company owned by Huadian New Energy Development Company Ltd, Shanghai Shendi (Group) Co Ltd and Shanghai Yiliu Energy Group Co Ltd.
     As a key infrastructure project for Shanghai International Tourism and Resorts Zone, the Combined Cooling, Heating, Power Plant (CCHP) is a grid-tied, gas-fired power plant which co-generates cooling and heating via engine waste heat, and produces compressed air by self-generated electricity. The CCHP project will supply hot water and chilled water for space heating and cooling, domestic hot water, and all compressed air needs for the Shanghai Disney Resort¡¯s daily operation in the most energy efficient and environment-friendly way. The project is designed, constructed and operated by Shanghai International Tourism and Resort Zone New Energy Company Limited, and will become operational in time to support the resort¡¯s opening, scheduled for the end of 2015.
     ¡°The CCHP project is an excellent example of partnership, localization and Disney¡¯s long-term commitment to environment protection. We are excited to be creating a world-class destination here in Shanghai to showcase environment friendly and leading Chinese and international technologies,¡± said Mike Crawford, General Manager, Shanghai Disney Resort.
