Solar Collectors on Tower Block

SolarUK's installation on Killick House was, at the time, the largest Solar Water Heating System in the UK

The project was part of an EU programme to bring the economic and environmental benefits of renewable energy to socially deprived areas. The aim was to reduce energy costs for lower income households and encourage the use of renewable energy.

Killick House is a council-tenanted block of 55 apartments at Collingwood Estate, Crown Road, Sutton.

See our Case Study section for more information.
