Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park Hackney E15 2GW

Here East proposes to install a solar photovoltaic array on the roof of the BC building with a maximum generation capacity of 4,500 kWp. This array would be connected to existing grid electrical supply points in the BC, and potentially the neighbouring Press Centre building. Modelling of the generation from the scheme against consumption data indicates that the array would meet 32% of the electrical demand of the connected parts of the estate, and that 84% of the electricity generated would be used on the campus, with the remaining 16% exported to the National Grid. This generation has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by up to 20,000 tonnes over the 25-year anticipated lifetime of the installation. The proposed PV equipment protrudes only 0.076 metres above the existing roof plane and is sited to maintain at least a 1 metre buffer from the external edge of the roof.
