Midea Carrier Wins 12 Bids to Provide Revolutionary HVAC for All of Brazil's New Sports Stadiums in 2016
In a prime showing of global prowess, Midea Carrier has announced its winning sweep of the 12 competitions to supply climate control solutions to Brazil’s new sporting stadiums in Barra and Deodoro Olympic Parks.
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL, February 22, 2016 – Midea Carrier in Brazil, a joint venture entity comprising of Midea Group - the number one global brand in air treatment as well as manufacturer and wholesaler of a broad range of home appliances - and Carrier - founded by the inventor of the air conditioner, Willis Carrier - announced that it has won the tenders for the provision of climate control solutions to all 12 new sports arenas and auxiliary facilities in both Barra and Deodoro Olympic Parks. The solutions provided at these venues will come as a combination of variable refrigerant flow (VRF) products and large tonnage Chiller units.
Winning the bids as the sole provider of HVAC solutions (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) for Brazil’s international sports stadium facilities not only marks a significant milestone in the joint venture’s operations in Brazil and LATAM markets, but also demonstrates Midea’s strengths and leadership in climate control solutions.
The Barra Olympic Park spreads across an area of 1,180 km2, hosting five stadiums, COT training centers, one hotel and news media offices. The Deodoro Olympic Park will be the second largest concentration of competition venues, hosting two stadiums and 11 Olympic sports.
The last project of Barra Olympic Park to complete its bidding process was for the Aquatics Center, where swimming, diving, water polo and other water sport competitions will be held during summer 2016. This is especially exciting, given Midea’s strong and long year’s connection with swimming and being an Official Partner of the International Swimming Federation (FINA).
Highly advanced and efficient HVAC technology
With audience comfort in mind, Midea Carrier will install V5X-series VRF units in all facilities to ensure ventilation at a consistent temperature range throughout the 2016 Sports Games.
The revolutionary V5X-series VRF units boast a high operational efficiency with low energy consumption, thanks to its advanced DC (direct current) inverter technology, precision refrigerant control, energy-saving heat transfer, and powerful low-temperature heating technologies. The VRF has a maximum parallel capacity of 88HP, the highest in the industry, as well as the leading integrated part load value (IPLV) of 8.3W/W.
“Once again Midea Carrier shows its expertise in managing climate control for the largest sporting spaces. In the 2014 FIFA World Cup Football Games, our solutions were installed in 9 of the 12 arenas built for the competition, totaling 75% of the works. Now we have won 100% of the works in new sporting arenas and auxiliary facilities.” said Midea Carrier’s Commercial Director, Marcos Torrado. “Being chosen as the provider to install commercial HVAC systems for Barra and Deodoro Olympic Parks showcases Midea Carrier’s strengths and commitment to quality. We are delighted to add this into our portfolio, and we believe it will serve us well down the road especially for winning other large scale commercial and government bids in the future,”
Midea commercial products have won the respect and loyalty of its international customers through the competitiveness of their quality and efficiency, as well service capability.
