In my role as Chair of the Energy and Carbon Working Group, I was able to make a visit to the Energy Centre which is part of the Legacy of the Commonwealth Games in 2014.
I was provided with a tour of the building and given information about the CHP engine, 3 boilers and a thermal store at the Energy Centre from a representative of Vital Energi.
Vital Energi carry out the design, installation, commissioning, testing and operation of the scheme until its eventual post Games completion in 2016. There is capacity for a future CHP engine, boiler and thermal store.

All the heating and hot water for the development goes through special
pre-insulated pipework. Initially, it will connect the Emirates National
Indoor Sports Arena, Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome, a Care Home and 704 domestic properties which are to be used as
athletes' accommodation before and during the Games.
