Background
About Dubai City Walk
Dubai City Walk is a high-footfall, mixed-use destination where occupancy swings sharply through the day — making a fixed ventilation schedule an expensive guess.
Dubai City Walk · Dubai, UAE
The challenge
What was in the way
High occupancy variability across a busy mixed-use development meant ventilation was either wasting energy or falling short on air quality, with no way to tell which was happening in real time.
The solution
What XiGiFy deployed
XiGiFy deployed the same DDCV approach — real-time occupancy and air-quality sensing feeding an automated airflow response, tuned to the property's own usage patterns.

The results
What changed
22% Lower Energy Use
The same demand-based control approach delivered a 22% reduction in ventilation energy use, measured in proof of concept.
Airflow That Tracks Real Occupancy
Ventilation now follows actual foot traffic through the property instead of a static schedule.
Result measured in proof of concept.
