Bayswater Waves Aquatic Centre Heating Study

Oceanis International was commissioned by the City of Bayswater to complete a high-level business case study of aquatic heating renewable energy options available to replace the existing gas boiler system and infrastructure at the Bayswater Waves facility.

The study analysed a range of options to replace existing gas heating, including options for electric heat pumps and renewable energy sources for year-round heating of pools. 

The analysis found that deep-well geothermal combined with rooftop solar to offset baseload would provide the greatest operational cost savings (estimated to be between $200,000-$350,000 per annum) and the greatest GHG emission reductions (estimated to be 2,017 tonnes of CO₂ per annum). 

The analysis has allowed City of Bayswater to plan with confidence for moving to alternative renewable energy sources for the Bayswater Waves facility.
