Powergate Data Centre
The Powergate Data Centre project in London involves the construction of a cutting-edge facility with complex electrical and environmental requirements. This site presents a unique challenge due to its scale, technical specifications and the critical nature of the equipment housed within. Temporary services implemented on-site are essential for maintaining operational efficiency, worker safety and adherence to environmental standards throughout the construction phase.
Key Infrastructure Components
- High Voltage (HV) Network and Substations, supporting large-scale operations and reliability
- Low Voltage (LV) Perimeter Ring Main, supporting site-wide distribution, offering flexibility ensuring a stable environments for all construction activities
- Tower Cranes, 6 cranes are crucial for handling large structural components and strategically positioned to optimise the lifting and movement of heavy materials across the expansive site
- Five-Storey Welfare Supplies, supporting workers on site and powered by the temporary LV ring main
Energy Efficiency & Environmental Control Measures
- Site Microwave Sensor Lights, to reduce unnecessary energy consumption
- Temperature Monitoring Systems, essential for maintaining optimal operations conditions
- Heating & Cooling for Critical Areas, for temperature-sensitive construction zones, ensuring environmental parameters remain within client-specific ranges
- Dehumidifiers, preventing moisture build-up, essential for a data centre
Safety & Security Measures
- Wireless Fire Alarms, a flexible and scalable system, allowing reconfiguration
Our temporary site services at Powergate Data Centre exemplifies a comprehensive approach to supporting large-scale, technically demanding projects. With a focus on reliability, energy efficiency, and safety, each service is tailored to meet the specific requirements of constructing a data centre, which demands rigorous standards of environmental control and operational continuity. These provisions ensure that construction proceeds smoothly while preparing the site for the critical operational standards required by the final facility.
