WilSon Energy Wins Utilities Contract for Stylish Residential Development
WilSon Energy has been appointed to install metering on the water and electricity supplies at Consort House, a prestigious new residential development in Doncaster. In addition to creating a private electricity network, WilSon Energy’s billing and bureau team will carry out remote data collection and utility billing.
A leading UK developer is spearheading the project to convert the former office building in Doncaster’s Civic Quarter into 70 stylish single-bedroom apartments built over their own private parking level. Built to the highest standards, the five-storey development supports Doncaster’s ambitious £300 million urban regeneration plans to attract new investment and improve residents’ quality of life.
The main developer awarded WilSon Energy the contract by to create a private electricity network and supply, install and commission smart metering for each of the properties. The team has also installed commercial electricity metering to monitor the consumption of the mobile telephone masts, adjacent estate agents’ office and new commercial retail unit.
Having surveyed the site and its electrical infrastructure, WilSon Energy identified scope for further electrical requirements. These included alterations to the car park lighting to accommodate a new electrical in-take room and the strip out and making all redundant electrical and data cables and equipment safe.
The team also supplied and installed the electrical containment from the new incoming position, provided a new 400amp switch fuse isolator, installed a new select panel and connected all riser supplies. Finally, a new landlord’s distribution board was installed and cables connected and the team supplied and installed new supplies to pick up various existing and reused distribution equipment.
Andy Wilkinson, CEO at Wilson Energy, said: “It’s great to win another contact within the residential space, and we’re pleased that we’ll be working together with the management and maintenance teams on an ongoing basis.”
“With each property having its own smart metering system, our billing and bureau team will be able to retrieve and analyse accurate data relating to water and electricity usage that will better inform residents of their utility spend and help to manage their expectations.”
WilSon Energy has also been contracted by the scheme’s property management representatives to provide billing and bureau services to residents, once the properties are occupied.
