CLS Holdings PLC owns the Vänerparken quarter in Vänersborg, a site that formerly served as a military hospital. Today, it comprises 45,000 square meters of premises for businesses, schools, medical facilities, and the Vattenpalatset ("The Water Palace") adventure swimming pool complex.
Energy Machines was commissioned to evaluate the properties’ primary and secondary energy systems and recommend sustainable solutions to enhance indoor comfort while reducing energy usage and carbon dioxide emissions across the Vänerparken quarter. Through a thorough analysis and adaptation of existing operations and maintenance processes, heating energy consumption was reduced by 769 MWh per year. These changes have resulted in annual cost savings of approximately €470,000 for Vänerparken.
The integrated energy system supplies heating, cooling, and domestic hot water to 11 buildings. When the Vattenpalatset adventure park celebrated its 20th anniversary, a new energy center became operational. This center harnesses energy from solar-heated soil and rock within the park and delivers it to all 11 buildings, including the swimming pool complex, through the integrated system.
Following the installation, the new system reduced CO2 emissions by 7,748 kg/year, achieving at least a 90% reduction compared to the previous system. NOx emissions have decreased to 161 kg/year, and overall emissions have been reduced by 95%. Energy Machines provided design and project management services, delivering a turnkey solution for Vänerparken. The installation was executed by NVS/Trollhättans Rör (now IMTECH) as part of a turnkey contract.
CLS Holdings PLC, the owner of the Vänerparken quarter, has launched a comprehensive program to minimize energy costs and environmental emissions across its properties in the UK, France, Germany, and Sweden. EnergyMachines™ has been tasked with implementing sustainable energy solutions and customized programs aimed at reducing emissions and enhancing energy efficiency, ensuring a more competitive and sustainable property portfolio.
