During this period, Tabreed added 41,319 Refrigeration Tons (RT) across its portfolio, bringing its total connected capacity to over 1.3 million RT. The company's Gross Profit increased by 3% year-on-year to AED 804 million, and its EBITDA reached AED 914 million with a healthy EBITDA margin of 50%.

Tabreed, a leading district cooling company, has completed a successful pilot project in partnership with HT Materials Science (HTMS), showcasing significant potential for energy efficiency gains. The pilot project involved the implementation of HTMS's heat transfer fluid technology, 'Maxwell', across Tabreed's 89 district cooling plants. The technology could increase efficiency by 9-15%, potentially preventing around 200,000 metric tons of GHG emissions annually. This would be equivalent to removing 43,500 cars from the roads each year. The project was trialled at a Tabreed district cooling plant in Abu Dhabi, and the results showed a 13.6% efficiency increase in the plant's chillers and an overall plant efficiency improvement of 9.0%.
