A pre-feasibility study for deep seawater air-conditioning systems in the Caribbean. Final report.
Author(s) : Makai Ocean Engineering, Inc.
Type of monograph: Report
Summary
At CAF request, Makai Ocean Engineering Incorporated (Makai) has completed a study on the use of cold deep seawater for air conditioning (SWAC) at two sites in the Caribbean; Montego Bay, Jamaica and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. Initially 8 Caribbean sites were evaluated for SWAC development, selecting these two sites for more detailed analysis based on their lowest levelized lifetime cost for installing and operating a SWAC system.
The feasibility study of these two sites, presented in this report, includes a preliminary conceptual design for the seawater intake and return pipes, pump station, chilled water distribution system, and estimates of capital cost, operating cost, and levelized cost book life analysis.
