ST MODWEN TO BUILD 350 GAS-FREE HOMES

Developer St Modwen plans to build up to 350 all-electric homes at the former
Longbridge MG Rover site in Birmingham.




First roll-out of ‘smart grid’ technology by a major developer on a gas-free
site

Powered by a dedicated ‘smart grid’, electricity will be supplied and tracked
across a network of homes to ensure this first phase of homes will be 100%
gas-free.

The innovation is believed to be the first to be used by a major developer as St
Modwen continues to pioneer sustainable new ways to build and power homes.



The smart grid design is being developed alongside SNRG, specialists in
next-generation energy infrastructure.

This latest move follows a landmark trial earlier this year to build homes so
airtight that they can return power to the UK grid.

By using the latest construction techniques and renewable technologies like
solar panels and heat pumps, the homes are designed to produce more energy than
they consume and could reduce a family’s total energy bills by 76% when compared
with a standard new-build house.



Aspects of this trial will be deployed in the new electric homes and in turn
across all new developments by St Modwen as carbon-reducing technology becomes
standard.

Sarwjit Sambhi, CEO of St. Modwen, said: “Every organisation needs to be taking
steps to deliver more sustainable products and services, but at St Modwen we
have taken leaps by introducing carbon-negative homes and smart-grid powered
developments.

“We’re proving that greener homes can be delivered at commercial scale,
something which is not just the right thing for the environment but also allows
us to meet the demand of our customers.”

Detailed planning for the first phase of the scheme is currently with the local
authority, with work due to start this Autumn.
