Reducing GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions is a key part of building a better future.  This case study shows in detail how Trane helped a 1960's building in Vancouver achieve a huge reduction in its energy costs and GHG emissions with a retrofit featuring energy conservation measures and an electrification strategy. 

Intelligent Services are data-driven, technology-enabled services that enhance building operations and management, to make buildings more energy efficient while making them more comfortable. 

County leaders selected Trane to replace their existing ammonia chiller system with a system that uses a sustainable refrigerant and can be housed outside. The result? The arena has reduced its energy costs, lowering its electrical bill by more than 20 percent while cutting maintenance costs. The upgrade also optimized comfort while addressing reliability, environmental, and safety issues.

When the City of Dawson Creek staff discovered ammonia contamination in the brine mixture needed for the ice cooling system shared by its Memorial Arena and Curling Club, the city took fast action for the safety of its patrons. The facilities were closed, as the city worked with TFM Consultants International and the BC Safety Authority to quickly restore services.

The new low GWP Opteon™ refrigerant was chosen for Ball Arena in Denver, CO, home of the NHL® Colorado Avalanche®, to reduce its environmental footprint while maintaining dependable performance. The arena has consistently received some of the best grades for ice quality over the last decade, thanks to an ice plant consisting of Trane® chiller systems that have provided outstanding performance and reliability for more than 10 years.

California’s SAP Center, home of the San Jose Sharks®, was upgraded with new ice making refrigeration systems and building air conditioning chillers. With factors such as environmental sustainability, equipment reliability, system performance and safety top of mind, the San Jose Sharks quickly converged on Opteon™ XP10 (R-513A).
