Low Carbon Estates
Description
We help organisations and suppliers deliver against their carbon reduction commitments and sustainability objectives. We help them understand their property portfolios and in doing so move to a low carbon future. We aim to do this without compromising on design or functional performance.
By carefully considering how we design, build, occupy, operate and maintain our built environment we can harness the principals of Biophilia and in turn improve the way we all feel about the spaces we occupy; improving our well being and as a consequence our productivity. Carbon Reduction is often a natural consequence of this approach to design and estate management.
Many organisations are now recognising the enormity of the task ahead of them; having acknowledged the reality of climate change and committed to often dramatic and rapid carbon reduction it is essential that actionable plans are developed and implemented.
Our aim is to help organisations do this and in turn deliver lasting beneficial change.

Storelectric
Description
Storelectric Ltd is a developer of projects using highly efficient forms of Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) using existing technologies, at a grid scale, efficiently and cost-effectively.
Both Storelectric’s CAES systems offer the ability not only to generate electricity but also store it when there is excess, to respond to intermittency issues and to provide ancillary services to the grid. When there is surplus electricity on the grid, Storelectric’s CAES uses it to compress air to around 70 bar pressure, also storing the heat. When electricity is required, air and heat are released through turbines to generate it. Power rating of storage, power rating of discharge and amount of energy stored are all independent variables in the design of these plants, enabling it to be optimised for baseload, fast response, interconnection, wind farm management and many other load cases.
