The U.S. Chiller Services companies are 330 employees strong, including highly specialized resources in complex cooling systems and automation.

Additionally, to chilled water plants and individual chillers in buildings, the U.S. Chiller Services companies serve an extensive portfolio of large customers, such as major airports, shopping malls, and prestigious office, and leisure centers.

This transaction underpins Dalkia’s international strategy to accelerate its growth in the Middle East.
