Background

A District Cooling System (DCS) is a large-scale centralised air conditioning system, which is a very energy-efficient cooling solution. Through interactive workshops and competition incorporated with STEM education, we not only hope to raise secondary students’ understanding of DCS as a green infrastructure, but also provide an opportunity for them to appreciate how DCS could contribute towards the future of carbon neutrality as well as its role in tackling climate change.
