1. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON LOW CARBON LONDON“ACTIVE NETWORK MANAGEMENT”

2. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Low Carbon London – a learning programme using London as a testbed to develop a smarter energy network A collaboration between UK Power Networks and various partners including Imperial College London, National Grid and EDF Energy Funded by Ofgem’s Low Carbon Networks Fund Part of the Mayor of London’s carbon reduction strategy

3. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Imperial College has set up a Low Carbon Learning Laboratory to analyse data and share learning from the programme Part of the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Professor Goran Strbac, Dr Simon Tindemans and Mark Bilton

4. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Low Carbon Networks 5 Themes Smart metersWind twinningDemand side managementElectric vehicles and heat pumps Distributed generation – the Mayor’s target is 25% of electricity and heating from local generation by 2025

5. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Increased demand on distribution network results in network upgrades. Cost of upgrades passed to customers. Our CHP engines will be connected to London Distribution Network via “active network management” devices Result will be “smarter” network with more connections into it These connections will be microgeneration units like our, with a lower carbon footprint

6. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Availability payments – when generation capacity is made available to UK Power Networks Utilisation payments – when the capacity is taken up Our CHP engines will mitigate overloads at the Duke Street substation in Mayfair

7. FACILITIES AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT – LOW CARBON LONDON Progress so far FM have agreed in principle to the project – contract terms to be agreed Project team has identified June, July and August as the period when they would utilise 10% of capacity of one engine Technical phase of the project will now commence, to look at installing the active network management controls Trials will start in AugustProject runs till 2014
