“ Frasers made it clear they wanted the greenest , most energy efficient project on the planet ”
– Jeff Jones , CEO
November that year . It was split into two stages , explains Bolton . “ In the first stage of the project , completed in 2013 we were required to complete the design of the plant and undertake the procurement , construction and commissioning of the plant to supply heating and cooling and power to four buildings , out of an eventual eleven , which were completed at that time .” Thanks to the complete success of Stage 1 , Total was then awarded Stage 2 , which includes design , procurement , construction and commissioning . The entire project was delivered on time and within budget in December 2015 .
Trigeneration is twice as energy efficient as coal-fired generation . The two 1.1 MW gas engines will save greenhouse gas emissions of up to 190,000 tonnes over the 25 year design life of the plant , equivalent to taking 2,500 cars off the roads each year it ’ s operating . Chilled and hot water piped to the 2,100 apartments and 50,000 square metres of office and commercial space in the complex delivers a considerable saving when compared to the conventional installation of individual plant rooms and equipment . Instead of 21 chillers , for example , there will be just seven high efficiency chillers saving on capital cost , space , and reducing total power consumption and emissions .
