Solihull Hospital

Solihull Hospital, managed by The Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust, is utilising combined heat and power technology and expertise from ENER-G to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 45% and generate cost savings.
The £5.7 million ENER-G trigeneration system creates low carbon electricity, together with steam or hot water for winter heating, and chilled water for use in the air conditioning systems during the warmer summer months.

The combined heat and power system will generate annual cost savings of £293,000, without any capital investment. The low carbon power generation system will also cut annual carbon dioxide emissions by 1,920 tonnes – the equivalent environmental benefit of a forest of 192,000 trees.

Solihull’s trigeneration project was the catalyst for an ambitious project by ENER-G to de-steam the site, involving a strategic refurbishment of the site’s electricity, heating and cooling infrastructure.

The Solihull Hospital previously produced steam in a central boiler house that delivered the means to heat, ventilate and provide domestic hot water through the hospital buildings.
