Solar Power

Hastingwood has invested heavily in becoming more environmentally friendly and cost efficient, successfully installing a total of 500 kW of solar photovoltaic generating capacity across our Estates, reducing our carbon footprint. The project involved regulatory, administrative, commercial and technical challenges and we are pleased and excited that it is finished and working well.

A total of 2,000 solar panels have been fitted to our roof structures and 50 Inverters are employed to turn sunlight into electrical power. The largest installation is at the Docklands Business Centre, others include Triumph Trading Estate and Hastingwood Trading Estate, all in London.

The power generated is used by our tenants and ourselves where possible with any surplus being sold to the National Grid.

The following photos show a small fraction of the total installation.
