answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/12/2014 answer text <p>1 Horse Guards Road, London SW1, is the only building on the HM Treasury estate over which the department has the necessary control of the structure and services to consider improving energy efficiency by the provision of further insulation. However, as the building is Grade 2* listed, options for doing this are very limited.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The building was totally refurbished in 2002 under a PFI agreement and insulation in the structure was incorporated to the standard required at the time. It has solid walls and a flat roof structure, so retro-fitting further insulation would be both very expensive and disruptive to the business of the five Government departments and 10 ministers that operate from the building.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The PFI partner and FM provider concentrate on ensuring insulation to services are well-maintained and renewed when necessary. For example, the hot and cold pipework on the roof area have recently been reinsulated.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom question first answered 09/12/2014 17:02:41 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/12/2014 answer text <p>1 Horse Guards Road, London SW1 is the Treasury’s only freehold building. The building is Grade 2* listed, situated very close to Parliament and many other buildings of historic and architectural importance.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Of the three main renewable sources – solar, wind and water – from which energy can be micro-generated, only solar might be considered appropriate in this location.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Accordingly and in response to a ministerial initiative in February 2014, a brief study, in consultation with the PFI partner and FM provider, was carried out to assess the viability of solar photo-voltaic (PV) arrays on the building. The conclusion was that the clear roof and ground areas fall substantially short of the space required for viable arrays and the necessity of obtaining Listed Building Consent represents a formidable barrier.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom question first answered 09/12/2014 17:01:25 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom
