The City of London is striving to build a sustainable future for the heart of this busy financial district, with an environmental target to create a greener city for everyone by reducing carbon emissions to zero.
The challenge is to supply cost efficient low carbon energy to a city that is continuously growing and has ever-increasing energy demands, for the 480,000 people that commute daily and the 8,000 that live there too.
E.ON is meeting this challenge head on with Citigen.
Our hidden tri-generation power plant sits below the streets of London’s square mile. This low carbon decentralised energy network uses internal combustion engines to provide heating, power, and cooling to the city's homes and businesses.
In addition, we're now commissioning a 4MW heat pump, this new technology will reduce carbon emissions by 30%, more on this exciting project below.
