Two NHS hospitals in East Cheshire are hoping to swab down their carbon footprint by 30 perfect and save £2.5 million on their energy bills with a revamped energy system, according to an article on the Energy Live News website.
An combined heat and power (CHP) plant is being built at Macclesfield District General Hospital.
Macclesfield is also replacing inefficient electric radiators, pumps and aging electric chillers, insulation of valves and pipe work to update the building’s energy management system.
The acute hospital and Congleton War Memorial hospitals are also having 3,250 light fittings replaced with high-efficiency LED lighting, as well as improving their boilers’ efficiency.
