Almadar Cooling as a Service chiller plant rendered as a blueprint

Zero capex

We acquire your existing plant and fund future replacement.

Guaranteed performance

We operate and optimise the plant, with agreed performance commitments.

One predictable monthly bill

You pay for the cooling you use, at a rate agreed for the term.
Why change

Owning a chiller plant means owning cost and risk across its lifecycle.

Trapped capital

Significant balance-sheet capital tied up in a non-revenue-generating, depreciating asset.

Operational costs

Without active optimisation, efficiency degrades and costs drift upwards.

Replacement capex

Among the largest expenses a building faces, often underbudgeted and poorly timed.

Technical risk

Ageing plants can fail under peak load, disrupting the entire building.

Regulatory risk

Tightening environmental requirements add compliance burden and financial exposure.
Today, you carry both.

Our CaaS model

You buy the cooling. We carry everything else.

Capital release

We buy your plant at an agreed value and pay you on day one.

Predictable operational costs

One predictable monthly bill for the cooling you use, at a rate agreed for the full term.

Zero capital expense

Replacement planned, funded and installed by us, with the future fee step agreed from day one.

Reliable technical delivery

Uptime and efficiency committed, with compensation if we fall short.

Compliance managed

Permits, licensing, reporting, emissions monitoring and refrigerant management, done by us.
We carry it. You are free to run your business.

One predictable monthly bill

Owning a chiller plant means paying for capex, maintenance, electricity, water, efficiency losses, repairs, replacement, compliance and the cost of capital. Almadar buys, operates, replaces and guarantees the plant, so these lifecycle costs become one fee.
