Summary
Corix DE Systems (Washington) LLC North American district energy solutions provider, announced today the launch of its Bellingham District Energy Utility (BDEU) system.
Developed in partnership with the Port of Bellingham, the BDEU delivers low-carbon heating and cooling to the Downtown Waterfront District and is helping transform the long-vacant, former pulp mill site into a thriving mixed-use community.
The BDEU captures waste heat from Puget Sound Energy's Encogen Generating Station, located next door, to provide reliable, affordable, low-carbon energy to its customers. This innovative, mutually beneficial approach not only reduces carbon emissions, but also saves water.
"This partnership helps PSE meet its larger clean energy commitment to reduce emissions, while benefiting the Bellingham community – it's a win-win," said Chris Clark, PSE Supervisor, Operations & Maintenance at Encogen.
Currently, Phase 1 of the BDEU provides heating and cooling to ~200,000 square feet and will expand over time to service 1.6 million square feet of mixed-use buildings in the Waterfront development.
