LondonMetric adds solar PV for industrial tenants

LondonMetric Property Plc has facilitated the addition of two solar PV arrays at industrial assets in Coventry and Bicester, UK.

At Coventry, 275 kWp of solar was installed on a warehouse let to food producer Aubrey Allen, covering around 25% of its annual energy needs.

At Bicester, 302 kWp will be installed later this year on a warehouse let to sustainable developer Greencore Homes. The SmartGrid system, which includes a battery storage system, will be installed and operated by renewable infrastructure company SNRG and is expected to meet close to 40% of Greencore’s annual energy needs.

Mark Stirling, asset director at LondonMetric, said: “Our focus is on meeting occupier requirements in a rapidly evolving environment by working in partnership with them to ensure their longevity and commitment to our assets. We are increasingly engaging with our occupiers to help them deliver on their net zero carbon targets and reduce their energy costs.”
