SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – March 26, 2024 – Hydroball Technics Singapore, a pioneer in green energy and water conservation since 2003, is making significant strides in promoting environmental sustainability. Committed to helping Singapore achieve its goal of net zero emissions by 2050, the company is dedicated to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and optimizing energy and water consumption in the electricity sector thanks to its exclusive HydroBall system, an automatic tube cleaning solution. This system uses a continuous hydromechanical cleaning operation by circulating sponge balls through the condenser tube at predetermined time intervals, keeping the interior surface free of scale and fouling.
Hydroball Technics targets a 1% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
Electricity generation contributes significantly to Singapore’s carbon emissions, accounting for around 40% of its total emissions.. In line with the country’s objective of
net zero emissions By 2050, Hydroball Technics aims to make a substantial impact by targeting a 1% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. This effort is expected to result in a remarkable reduction of 258,800 tonnes in greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to the national objective to combat climate change.
To put this reduction in perspective, consider that in the United States, 1,402,438 kWh of electricity generation produces 576 tons of CO2 emissions. Therefore, Hydroball Technics’ goal to reduce emissions would result in energy savings equivalent to 630,123,185 kWh, significantly contributing to a greener and more sustainable future.
Lead the charge toward sustainable solutions with the HydroBall ATC system
The company’s greatest achievement lies in the HydroBall system, a “non-motorized” system
automatic tube cleaning (ATC) system launched in 2005. This innovative system addresses the challenges faced by water-cooled condenser systems in cooling plant rooms in various commercial and industrial buildings. Specializing in reducing energy and water consumption and driving cost efficiency, the HydroBall system has become a key element in businesses’ efforts to contribute to Singapore’s overarching goal of becoming a sustainable and eco-friendly nation. ‘environment.
Three key features contributing to the success of this innovative system are:
-
“Non-motorized” system that eliminates the need for main motors such as pumps, compressors or inverters, reducing maintenance needs;
-
“Water resilience” mechanism that promotes the recycling, reuse and circularity of water during regular operations, thereby minimizing water waste;
-
“Double loop” design prevents mixed hot and cold water from entering the condenser, maintaining chiller efficiency unlike other tube cleaning systems.
They highlight the system’s commitment not only to operational efficiency but also to environmental sustainability. By preserving chemically treated cooling water, the HydroBall system actively contributes to supporting biodiversity. This approach aligns with the broader goal of mitigating the impacts of climate change, as responsible water management plays a crucial role in responding to environmental challenges.
This sustainable ACMV equipment has received the prestigious score of 4 ticks, which is the maximum rating, under the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) Green Building Products Certification Program with SGBP certification numbers 4114 and 3745. It This is a recognition that highlights Hydroball Technics. ‘ commitment to providing environmentally friendly solutions for the HVAC/ACMV industry, strengthening HydroBall Technic’s position as a leader in green energy and water conservation.
With the HydroBall ATC system installed, buildings can benefit from significant optimization of energy consumption. Chiller-specific power consumption can be reduced by 18.4%, as confirmed by an independent evaluation report of the HydroBall ATC system from a field test project funded by The Enterprise Challenge Unit (TEC reference number: L00279/772). This substantial reduction in electricity consumption not only addresses critical factors such as cooling system inefficiency and rising electricity rates, but also aligns with the company’s vision of creating a more sustainable and energy-efficient future for businesses in various sectors. Additionally, the HydroBall ATC system can lead to substantial savings of up to 35% on energy, water, labor and other expenses for buildings and major remodels.
“As a company deeply committed to green energy and water conservation, Hydroball Technics is proud to play an important role in helping Singapore achieve its goal of net zero emissions by 2050. Our HydroBall
Automatic tube cleaning system demonstrates our commitment to environmental sustainability, providing businesses with an efficient and certified solution to reduce energy and water consumption and costs,” said Mr. Peter Soh, CEO of Hydroball Technics.
Singapore is committed to peaking emissions before 2030 and achieving net zero emissions by 2050. We have taken concrete steps to reduce our carbon footprint. These include gradually increasing our carbon tax rate, facilitating imports of renewable energy and promoting energy efficiency. Everyone must fight climate change: government, businesses and households.
“In 2019, to optimize energy consumption at the system level, we introduced Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) for water-cooled chilled water systems to encourage the adoption of energy efficient operations. energy-efficient chilled water by industrial installations.
Mandatory MEES requirements were introduced for new industrial facilities in 2020. This resulted in new facilities each saving an average of $300,000 per year in electricity costs, recouping their initial capital outlay just after 3 years .
We will amend the Energy Savings Act this year to apply similar requirements to existing industrial facilities starting in December 2025. Existing industrial facilities can expect average energy savings of around 1.25 million Singapore dollars per year per installation over the 15-year life of the system, and to recoup the upgrade. and operating costs within 5.5 years. said Dr Amy Khor, Minister of State for Sustainable Development and Environment.
