The cooling-as-a-service (CaaS) model ensures better efficiency and reliability, and allows users to eliminate the cost of equipment, operational expenses, and liabilities by paying a pre-agreed charge. Taka signed its first CaaS project with Green Coast Real Estate for one of its residential projects, where it is projected to save over AED 2 mn in utility costs.
