The brief

The British Museum is undertaking a major development at its Bloomsbury Estate.

The Energy Centre Programme is designed to improve energy supply and generation, rationalise primary services distribution, and provide improved resilience in the building services infrastructure that serves the Museum’s main site.

The programme is also a key enabler which will support ongoing asset and infrastructure renewal and the emerging aspirations of the British Museum’s masterplan.

The M&E Contractor will undertake the role of Principal Contractor to provide all M&E services within the new South West Energy Centre, within the new East Road Building, within existing and new substations and all associated services infrastructure.

The scope also includes elements of civils and builders work including trenching for new and relocated services and threading services through the existed listed building fabric.
