Tayside Health Board wanted to invest in significant energy upgrades to provide a resilient energy supply to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, and reduce maintenance backlog. £15.35m contract value 25 year operation and maintenance contract 2,000 tonnes of CO2 reduction per year through lighting upgrades 4MWe CHP capacity Project Overview Tayside Health Board oversees the healthcare services in Angus, Dundee and Perth and Kinross, which employs around 14,000 workers and provides healthcare for a population of around 415,000. The estate includes three major hospitals (Ninewells, Perth Royal Infirmary, Stracathro), numerous community hospitals, 60 GP surgeries and a variety of health centres. The Health Board wished to make substantial upgrades to the infrastructure at Ninewells Hospital including a new Combined Heat & Power engine (CHP) and upgrades to associated plant and equipment, the chilling system, the building management system (BMS) and lighting. Perth Royal Infirmary benefited from lighting upgrades and other site improvements, with lighting upgrades being installed at Stracathro Hospital. Tayside Health Board wanted to invest in significant energy upgrades to provide a resilient energy supply to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, and reduce maintenance backlog. Our Solution The Health Board procured the project through the Carbon & Energy Fund. In addition to designing and installing the low-carbon energy system, we are providing a comprehensive asset management service including operation, maintenance and lifecycle over the next 25 years. The project is underpinned with an Energy Performance Contract, which guarantees financial savings and carbon targets. We proposed a solution, which included both an energy generation solution, and energy reduction measures to maximise carbon reductions and financial savings. Our solution included lighting upgrades in all three hospitals, an upgraded BMS control system, an updated energy centre and insulation upgrades. Key Benefits Largest lighting upgrade to take place in a fully operational hospital, saving 2,000 tonnes of CO2 per year The major energy upgrades at Ninewells Hospital required 17,233 light fittings to be replaced with high efficiency LED units, which is the largest lighting upgrade to take place in a fully-operational hospital. We upgraded 4,080 light fittings and made insulation improvements at Perth Royal Infirmary, and upgraded 382 light fittings at Stracathro Hospital. New heat and power generation equipment and upgrades to the BMS increase the efficiency of the system Engaging clients project team by demonstrating the quality of our supply chain One of the largest chimney refurbishments Vital have ever undertaken Operation and maintenance services for the next 25 years Healthcare Combined heat & power (CHP) Energy performance contracts Procurement frameworks Scotland Completed Retrofit Share: NHS Tayside Download Project Case Study NHS Tayside Case Study 1.9 Mb RELATED CASE STUDY York Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust York Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Other Related Projects Scarborough & Bridlington Hospitals Value £4.4m Contract length 14 Months Scarborough & Bridlington Hospitals Energy Upgrades The Ram Quarter O&M Value £580k Contract length Ongoing Ram Quarter Bicester Eco Village Contract length Ongoing Bicester District Heating Network King's Cross O&M Value £15m King’s Cross – Operation and Maintenance Products and Services How we delivered this project Energy Centre District Heating Pre Insulated Pipework Energy Generation Creative, collaborative and complete HOW CAN WE HELP?
