Summary
SHARC International Systems Inc. is proud to announce its Wastewater Energy Transfer ("WET") system as the core component of Creative Energy's Sen̓áḵw Energy System, the district energy system, or thermal energy network, that will be supporting the landmark Vancouver based project, Sen̓áḵw—an ambitious undertaking representing the largest real estate development in Canadian First Nations history. The SHARC WET system has been shipped to the project.
District Energy Systems (“DES”), or Thermal Energy Networks (“TEN”), provide thermal energy to multiple buildings from a central energy plant. Steam or hot water produced at the plant is transmitted 24/7 through highly insulated underground thermal piping networks. Thermal energy is transferred into and from the building’s system through energy transfer stations placed in the building, reducing mechanical room space required for housing equipment and simplifying heating and cooling systems. SHARC Energy enables DES or TENs to leverage wastewater, a forgotten resource, as a low-carbon source of thermal energy to help save energy and reduce carbon emissions on a multiple-building scale.
