  • Decentralized Energy Master Planning
    Decentralized Energy Master Planning The London Borough of Brent An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Submitted by Anthony Aldi Karen Anundson Andrew Bigelow Andrew Capulli Sponsoring Agency London Borough of Brent Planning Service Advisors Dominic Golding Ruth Smith Liaison Joyce Ip 29 April 2010 This report represents the work of four WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. Abstract The London Borough of Brent aims to reduce its carbon emissions via implementation of decentralized energy schemes including combined heat and power systems. The objective of this project was to aid Brent in the early stages of its decentralized energy master planning. By examining policies of other boroughs and studying major development areas within Brent, the WPI project team has concluded that the council must actively facilitate the development of decentralized energy systems through the use of existing practices and development of well supported policies. i Authorship Page This report was developed through a collaborative effort by the project team: Anthony Aldi, Karen Anundson, Andrew Bigelow, and Andrew Capulli. All sections were developed as team with each member contributing equally. ii Acknowledgements The team would like to thank our advisors from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Professor Dominic Golding and Professor Ruth Smith. The team would also like to thank the liaison Joyce Ip from the London Borough of Brent Planning Service and the entire Planning Service.

    AWARD WINNING ESTATE AGENTS QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER JULY 2015 KALMARs MARKET LEADERS IN THE SOUTH LONDON AREA COMMERCIAL The commercial market on the Southbank and in inner South London is dominated by the large office buildings along the Southbank, where large professional and media companies have been actively acquiring space, including News International in the “Baby Shard” taking over 400,000 sq ft. All sectors are showing keen demand as the economy picks up and hence the data throughout this report reflects similar patterns. VACANCY RATE ASKING RENT PER SF INTRODUCTION Welcome to KALMARs second quarterly report for 2015, an analysis of the South London property market. This combines our experience with carefully researched data from leading indices, providing up to date information to assist those interested in property in South London. This is general data, for more specific information affecting a property contact one of the specialist consultants from our team, the largest, and as we approach our 50th year, the most experienced in South London. A surge in rents and plummeting availability is clearly demonstrated by the figures and graphs throughout this report and is underlined by our own experience. Thus the very strong demand and improvements NET ABSORPTION PROBABILITY OF LEASING MONTHS in business’s performances has transformed the market over the last two years as the UK economy, particularly in London, has come out of recession and is now performing very well across all commercial and residential sectors.
