Energy centre for homes unveiled
The Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) has unveiled the Energy Centre at its Derwenthorpe development where nearly 550 homes are planned to be built, claiming the facility will provide heating and hot water through the burning of biomass fuel, and also act as a meeting place for residents, businesses, schools and local groups.
Now school pupils in York are being asked to help name the new facility.

Hide AdNigel Ingram, director of development and asset management at JRHT, said: “The Energy Centre will be at the very heart of the Derwenthorpe community. It will be a fantastic facility, powering over 500 homes but also providing a central meeting point with modern facilities for local people to come together.
“It’s vital local people are involved as the development makes progress.”
