St George’s Hospital in Tooting is the largest healthcare provider in South West London. It serves 1.3 million people and 800,000 patients, as well as being a teaching hospital and advanced medical research centre. It employs over 8,500 people.

During 2017, we continued working to deliver the hospital with endto-end solutions that improve their energy efficiency and operational performance, while reducing carbon emissions.

The energy centre will deliver recurring savings in energy costs year-on-year which can be redirected into patient care. It also helps St George’s Hospital meet their goal of reducing their carbon footprint.
