We have been providing the operation and maintenance duties for the CHP energy centre at the Commonwealth Games Atheletes' Village since 2014, ensuring a smooth operation and an efficient and reliable energy supply for the residents.
We designed & built the low-carbon energy system for the 2014 Commonwealth Games development in Glasgow. The 1.68MW CHP energy centre connects to a 28km district heating network and supplies heat and hot water to 704 homes, Emirates Stadium, Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, a community center, nursery and a 120 bed care home.
We are responsible for operating and maintaining the site to make sure that all equipment is properly maintained and in working order. Our responsibilities include planned and reactive operation and maintenance services of the energy centre, district heating network, Heat Interface Units (HIUs) and smart metering system installed inside individual dwellings and buildings.
To ensure the site is sufficiently monitored, we have a contracts manager, a team leader, two O&M engineers in Glasgow and a further five O&M engineers located within 30-45 minutes of the site. The team operate 24/7, 365 days per year and assets can be remotely managed from our head office by using our web based, single platform Project Portfolio Management (PPM) system, Maximo.
