UAE-based engineering consultancy firm, DC Pro Engineering, has expanded its operations and opened two offices in Australia to service the growing demand from businesses and entities across the country for a push towards renewable energy.
DC PRO Engineerings offices in Perth, Western Australia and Melbourne, Victoria, will work with public and private entities spanning the east-west electricity grids, to adopt latest technological innovations and new approaches to meet energy distribution, generation and storage to meet the needs of Australian consumers.
George Berbari, CEO of DC PRO Engineering, explained: Renewables are on the way to becoming the dominant source of energy across the globe. Governments are now aware that global warming is a real threat and are now focusing on sustainability. The Australian government has pledged to cut its greenhouse gas emissions significantly by 2030, and DC PRO Engineering identified a way in which we could contribute to this vision that embodies our approach.
Australia is just one of many territories where we have identified growth opportunities, but the main reason DC PRO Engineering has opened offices in Australia is to be part of the countrys green vision and journey and to share our expertise.”
Marcus Wearing-Smith, representative of DC PRO Australia, said: District energy systems are being considered as a necessary component of Australias energy future. The emergence of Renewable Energy Micro Grids is essential to cater for the geographically disparate energy profile of the Australian continent. Traditional electricity grids are failing. DC PROs experience is directly aligned with the new energy regime emerging in Australia.
The company has the in-depth knowledge and experience of energy efficiency precinct and district systems combined with an exceptional understanding of enhanced HVAC systems applied to cooling dominant environments. DC PROs integration of ultra-high efficiency, small to large-scale energy solutions, coupled with renewable energy systems, places DC PRO in a unique position to contribute to the mix of energy solutions demanded by Federal and State governments in Australia.”
Through its Australian offices, DC PRO Engineering will focus on the introduction of medium to large-scale precinct and district energy systems in the Australian energy landscape, with a focus on integrated energy systems incorporating thermal energy storage combined with enhanced integrated renewable energy systems. The firm will offer both mechanical and electrical engineering services and assist in achieving global best practices in energy efficiency performance.
Direct Energy Australia, an established engineering firms that offer services to government and private enterprises, will partner with DC PRO Engineering on office coordination and client liaison. Direct Energy Australias has an engineering team with expertise in renewable energy, electrical & controls, electrical, mechanical, as well as a forward-thinking geothermal designer, which will facilitate client relations for DC PRO.
