Seeking Investment to Fund and Install a Heat Pump, Powering 24/7 Hydrotherapy Pool Facility at Special Educational Needs School

– Our seventh community share offer will launch soon: our aim is to fund the purchase and installation of a heat pump, powering a vital service – a 24/7 hydrotherapy pool at Charlton Park Academy in Greenwich. Our target is £70,000.

– This will be Selce’s 24th community financed installation – after 11 for LEDs, and 12 for solar – we are revisiting one of the solar sites from our first ever share offer to add an air source heat pump.

– In terms of carbon savings, the heat pump will reduce emissions by the equivalent of 33 households’ electricity usage per year. Over 20 years of operation, the 58kW heat pump will save 313.4 tonnes in CO2e emissions.

– up to £4,000 over the 10 year share period also goes to supporting Selce’s fuel poverty alleviation programme.

– By investing together, there’s so much we can do for people and planet. We are stronger together.

– Minimum investment is £250.

Gas boilers account for 25% of Greenwich’s CO2 Emissions. This sector is the most challenging and vital to target in meeting climate commitments.

At the same time it is very underserved by the commercial market and the community energy space due to the complexity and lack of provable test examples.

There are currently fewer than five community energy projects tackling low carbon/renewable heat in London, none of which are in the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

Charlton Park Academy (CPA) has incredibly high gas usage and emissions as well as sky rocketing gas bills. This special needs academy is struggling to cope and wishes to be more sustainable and maximise the business case of this project.

Another step on the path for the schools plans to be a leader in fully decarbonising special education needs sites over the next 10 years.

More Info

Marvels Lane is a two-form primary school in Lewisham, with 404 pupils. The majority of the school’s emergency lighting is linked to a 13 year-old remote emergency lighting monitoring system which is no longer fit for purpose.

In addition to an LED upgrade, this project will decommission the old system and install manual key switches throughout the school, enabling it to conduct more accurate emergency lighting tests at their preferred frequency.

Every year the school sets aside funds for a specific number of pupils, geared towards an activity classified under the enrichment curriculum.

Pupils and staff decide on the activity, and reducing their electricity costs will increase the number of pupils able to participate.
