Power at the zero emissions housing project BedZED is mainly provided by a combined heat and power unit fuelled by waste timber from local tree surgery. To avoid oversizing the CHP unit a 109 kW photovoltaic installation provides power for 40 electric cars - some communal, some taxi, some privately owned. The PV system comprises conventional roof-integrated modules plus laminates installed within double-glazing units on the conservatory areas [Copyright: OJA-Services]
