The LHS Power Plant Expansion is a 1700 square metre addition designed as part of the larger enabling works project with the Regional Mental Health Care in London.
The design accommodates space for a steam boiler, gas turbine, a central control room, administrative spaces, and a lunchroom for staff. The utilitarian design prioritizes natural light through raised windows, well-thought-out workspaces, and abundant internal glazing creating an engaging environment for the plant’s employees while conserving electricity.
The addition expanded the capacity of the existing district energy system. The development of additional steam and electrical power to the hospitals was intended to fulfill long-term projected growth requirements. The project involved meticulous coordination of all services to ensure barrier-free access to the building.
