A high needs of air conditioning system in human life results in increase of total electricity consumption due to the use of air conditioning system equipment. Approximately 50-70% of the total electricity consumption of a building is used for air conditioning systems. Therefore, the more efficient in cost and energy of air conditioning system is required. <br /> <br /> <br /> In a wide area that consists of several buildings, consumption application of district air conditioning system is more efficient in energy than individual building systems. Besides, the investment costs and electricity consumption of equipment can be reduced, maintenance costs will be decreased, the possibility of environmental problems arising from the use of refrigerant can be minimized, and the space for location and installation of chiller at each building is no longer needed so that consumers will get additional free space. <br /> <br /> <br /> Design results show that by applying the district system in the design of air conditioning systems for a wide area, in this case Gandaria Main Street area Jakarta, could save investment costs up to Rp. 1,729,313,800.00 and the total <br /> <br /> <br /> electricity consumption of 1,313 kWh/day or equivalent of around Rp. 191.100,00/day.
