Summary
Cordia, a leading provider of energy solutions, announced today that it has signed a 20-year agreement to provide chilled water service to the new Arizona State University (ASU) Health headquarters at the Phoenix Bioscience Core (PBC). The building will be cooled from Cordia’s Plant 4, a new central energy facility powered by 100% renewable electricity. Plant 4 is scheduled to break ground in March 2026 and be fully operational by the Fall of 2027.
The agreement supports ASU’s commitment to sustainability while helping meet the growing energy needs of downtown Phoenix. The ASU Health headquarters will become the sixth ASU Downtown Phoenix campus building served by Cordia’s district chilled water system.
By using a centralized cooling system, buildings at the PBC can operate more efficiently, reduce capital and O&M costs, and the need for large on-site mechanical equipment, with lower overall carbon emissions. Plant 4 is being designed to serve not only the ASU Health headquarters, but future developments across the PBC as the area continues to grow.
