The invention discloses an energy-saving cooling tower. The tower comprises a tower body, a cold air inlet and a cold air outlet, the cold air inlet is arranged on the side surface of the bottom of the tower body, an induced draft fan is arranged at the cold air inlet, the cold air inlet is connected with a cold air inlet tube, the cold air inlet tube is uniformly provided with a plurality of air inlet apertures, the cold air outlet is arranged at the top of the tower body, a water blocking plate is arranged at the cold air outlet, a support is fixed at the upper portion of the tower body, a water spray tube is fixed on the support, atomization spray nozzles are uniformly distributed below the water spray tube, the middle of the water spray tube is connected with a water tube, a circulation water tank is arranged at the bottom of the tower body, the lower end of the water tube stretches to the inside of the circulation water tank, the tail end of the water tube is connected with a circulation water inlet, the circulation water inlet is arranged at one side of the circulation water tank, and a circulation water outlet is arranged at the other side of the circulation water tank. According to the invention, the cold air inlet tube absorbs underground cold air, so the temperature difference is large, the cooling effect is good, and environmental protection is realized; and a gas in the tower body has a small flow velocity and cannot take out water mist, and the water blocking plate is arranged at the cold air outlet, so the take-out of the water mist is further prevented without the arrangement of a water collection device.
