Atlantic City Midtown Thermal District

The Midtown Thermal Control Center (MTCC) was a Greenfield development project, which emphasized the developer’s long-term vision of a city-wide district steam and chilled water system, built in multiple phases. The initial phase included central steam (boilers) and chilled water production and distribution piping. A latter phase added a combined heat and power plant to the production facility.

CITY DISTRICT ENERGY SYSTEM – COMBINED HEATING, COOLING AND POWER

• Owned by Cartier Energy – a Vauban Infrastructure Partners, LLC company.
• DCO operates and maintains the system, and principals of DCO developed and constructed the district energy system.
• The central energy center and distribution system serve steam and chilled water for midtown Atlantic City, including casinos (Caesars, Wild West), AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, hotels, and the famous Boardwalk Hall convention center.
• 210,000 PPH steam boiler capacity
• Fourteen centrifugal chillers (16,200 tons capacity)
• 5.5 MW gas turbine/HRSG (72,000 PPH steam capacity)

This facility was fully operational during Super Storm Sandy – providing electric and thermal energy to customers. The facility is equipped with black start and islanding capabilities.
