Image: Supplied Energy consumption continues to rise across the Gulf with temperature extremes intensifying every year. As a result, the region’s cooling demand is accelerating at a rate faster than ever. HVAC systems already account for more than 60 per cent of electricity usage in several GCC countries, prompting both governments and manufacturers to rethink the future of cooling.
