Powering the Palace
Показать описание
Project Manager Barry Igoe explains the process of removing Buckingham Palace’s ageing boilers, and the installation of a new energy centre. This work is being carried out as part of the Palace’s wider ten-year Reservicing Programme, which will overhaul the building’s essential services.
The Reservicing programme will improve visitor access and make the Palace more energy efficient.
Designed by Edward Blore in the 1840s, the East Wing of Buckingham Palace was built for Queen Victoria to provide more entertaining and living space for her expanding family. Blore’s design included the famous central balcony on the front façade of the Palace, which was incorporated at Prince Albert’s suggestion. Since then it has been used on many national occasions, including annually at Trooping the Colour.
