Company brief
Tabreed (National Central Cooling Company PJSC) is a UAE-based district cooling company listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, established in 1998 and headquartered in Abu Dhabi. Tabreed is widely recognised as the world's leading district cooling company, with a portfolio of 92 plants across the GCC and internationally, including 76 in the UAE, five in Saudi Arabia, eight in Oman, one in Bahrain, one in India, and one in Egypt. The company provides large-scale chilled water distribution networks to iconic real estate, government, and transport developments, offering a more energy-efficient alternative to building-level air conditioning systems. Tabreed's clients include the Burj Khalifa, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Louvre Abu Dhabi, Ferrari World, Yas Island, Dubai Mall, Dubai Opera, Dubai Metro, Emirates Towers, Bahrain Financial Harbor, and the Jabal Omar Development in Makkah. Its GCC airport relevance is significant: cooling infrastructure for major UAE transport and urban developments — including Dubai Metro and broader Abu Dhabi development zones — demonstrates Tabreed's engineering capability for large-scale transit and public infrastructure conditioning. The company operates plants with combined installed capacity exceeding 170,000 RT for Downtown Dubai alone, with target cooling reliability of 99.9 to 99.99%. Sustainability is a core focus, with Tabreed systems collectively preventing approximately 150,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually through energy efficiency gains. The company reported revenue of AED 2.434 billion and net profit of AED 570 million for the twelve months ending December 2024.
