In October 2023, London Cable Cars partnered with Energy Efficient Solutions Group (EES Group) to install a state-of-the-art solar photovoltaic (PV) system. This project aligns with Transport for London’s (TFL) ambitious sustainability targets, which include a 55% reduction in emissions by 2030 and full carbon neutrality by 2045.

what we did…
The project involved careful planning to meet energy needs and accommodate the fragile building structures. The latest innovative technology was deployed to ensure highest performance and reliability, enabling detailed monitoring for the client.
With only a five-day window for the project, due to biannual cable car maintenance, efficient planning and constant client communication were essential. Work could only occur from Sunday at 10pm to Friday at 6pm.
Overcoming challenges was crucial to meet the tight deadline. Access issues and site constraints required quick solutions, such as repositioning obstacles and specialised scaffolding for the glass buildings. Slippery PVC roofing and health and safety concerns were addressed.
Effective communication with project management played a key role in the successful execution of this challenging project, emphasising risk mitigation and problem-solving to ensure on-time completion.
