Nanaimo Port Theatre Electrification
Retrofit Vendor Prism Engineering supported Port Theatre to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through Low Carbon Electrification (LCE) measures. The rooftop, air-cooled screw chiller had reached its end-of-life. Prism redesigned the heating system with a heat recovery, air-to-water variable refrigerant flow (VRF) system to provide primary heating for the building, recovering heat from the theatre during shows. Replacing the existing chiller with a heat pump system eliminated natural gas consumption to heat the building, leading to GHG savings of 98 tonnes eCO2, or 90% of the building’s emissions.
