Ruscoe Road Newham E16 1JB

Located NW of Victoria Dock and London City Airport, St Luke’s Primary School has been outlined for a roof-mounted solar array. The area surrounding the proposed array consists mainly of residential buildings. Appendix 1.1 shows the location of the proposed development in the context of the wider area. St Luke’s Primary School has a large expanse of unused roof space available, providing excellent scope for the PV array. With a high energy demand associated with the running of the school, electricity generated through the optimisation of available solar resource would be a significant benefit to St Luke’s Primary School, in terms of financial and utility security and carbon emission reduction from operations.
