LORIEN COMPLETES MAJOR ENERGY SAVING PROJECT FOR NATIONAL TRUST

Lorien Engineering Solutions, the engineering design and project management firm, has bolstered its credentials in the sustainability sector, having completed a landmark energy saving project for the National Trust.

The Lichfield based company carried out a full sustainable options analysis followed by the design and project management for the installation of biomass boilers at Sudbury Hall in Derbyshire.

Limited access meant cranes were used to lift the new boilers into an external courtyard for placing into the basement of the 17th century stately home, where Lorien also took on the role of Principal Contractor for Health and Safety.

The work is part of a larger programme involving 11 of the National Trust’s historical and inspirational locations across England and Wales; all of which are to become powered by small scale renewable energy under a new National Trust green energy plan, in partnership with npower.
