Utilizing the company's district cooling systems has resulted in the generation of huge energy savings for the booming hotel industry in Dubai--further reaffirming Empower's industry dominance and leading reputation in providing reliable technical solutions.    

Included in hotels that Empower provides highly efficient district cooling services to are three of the tallest hotels in the world--the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai Towers, the Burj Al Arab, and the Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel, which have been listed by WorldAtlas.com as part of the five tallest hotels in the world. These hotels are part of Empower’s growing portfolio of elite clients that depend on its integrated district cooling services.
