Solar Panels
Working with one of our onsite tenants and UK’s best solar panel and EV charger installers -Greenio Ltd over the summer of 2023 we installed the latest in solar technology to our serviced office buildings.

LED Lighting
LED Lighting In 2023, T5 and T8 fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) were phased out in accordance with the European Commission's Ecodesign and RoHS Directives. The reason is to remove the most energy- and resource-demanding products from the market and the use of environmentally hazardous mercury. All our LED lights work off motion detection sensors meaning they are only every on when needed.
Air Conditioning vs Gas Central Heating
All of our offices benefit from individual air conditioning units. The benefits are that heat is drawn from ambient air rather than being generated by burning fuel and this use of renewable energy is what reduces the running costs and makes air conditioners a much better option for the future of our planet.
Our air conditioning units are highly efficient, producing around 3 kilowatts of heat for every kilowatt of electricity used compared to 1 kilowatt from traditional central heating systems.
