Hollywood House is a 1980’s five story building which was dated and expensive to run for the main tenant Skanska Rashleigh Weatherfoil. When the lease was up for renewal, Skanska proposed to the landlord Prupim to refurbish the building to maximise its energy performance.
In addition to extensive refurbishment that included installation of new heating, lighting, ventilation and energy management systems, and the incorporation of raised floors and suspended ceilings, the building was also connected to Thameswey's heat and power network that serves the town centre.
The energy station has a 1.3MWe Combined Heating and Power plant (CHP) that now provides Hollywood House with 100% low-carbon heating, hot water and electricity.
