Wates Construction, which has delivered the scheme, has reached practical completion on the buildings, which have been handed over to developer and asset manager MEPC.
Run entirely on renewable electricity, the buildings will save a forecasted 407 tonnes of CO2 annually. Sustainability credentials also include an EPC A rating, BREEAM rating of Outstanding and a Fitwel accreditation, a certification system that positively impacts health through building design and operation.
Paul Pavia, head of development at MEPC, said: “We’re extremely proud that 11 & 12 Wellington Place have set a new benchmark for future-proofed, sustainable development in Yorkshire and beyond.”
