- The project, which commenced this month, aims to outfit up to 100 solar panels per identified property, with completion planned by 2025.
- Spencer McCarthy, Churchill’s chairman, emphasises the importance of sustainable, energy-efficient solutions as a benefit to their customers.
Churchill Living is taking significant steps towards sustainability by integrating solar panels into 35 of its properties across the United Kingdom. This initiative is part of a broader effort to modernise their residential offerings, aligning them with environmentally-conscious standards.
In collaboration with HDM Energies and CRG, Churchill aims to leverage advanced photovoltaic technology, which is anticipated to produce around 26,000 kWh of energy per site each year. This substantial energy production is expected to reduce the overall carbon footprint and operational costs of the developments involved.
Currently, installation work has begun on 13 of the selected sites, with the remainder slated for completion by 2025. Each location will see the installation of up to 100 solar panels, marking a considerable investment in renewable energy infrastructure.
Spencer McCarthy, Churchill’s chairman and chief executive, stated, “For many years, we have been committed to incorporating various types of renewable energy generation technology into the developments we build and manage.” This commitment underscores the company’s strategic focus on delivering future-proofed and cost-effective housing solutions.
The initiative exemplifies Churchill’s commitment to sustainability and customer benefit through advanced energy solutions.
