From apartment complexes to large housing developments, residents expect uninterrupted power for comfort, safety, and connectivity. Power failures can lead to inconvenience, reputational damage for developers, and even compliance risks. Shenton Group ensures residential sites remain operational around the clock with tailored power solutions.
Residential developments and other buildings such as hotels must have adequate backup power – it’s not just a convenience, it’s a legal and safety requirement. In the event of a power outage:
Without these measures, compliance is compromised, and the safety of residents and guests is at risk.
Our solutions include:
Battery storage adds an extra layer of resilience, enabling residential sites to store renewable energy, reduce reliance on the grid, and maintain uptime during transitions or outages.
Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems generate heat and electricity simultaneously, making them ideal for large residential sites and hotels with high hot water demand. CHP can reduce carbon emissions by up to 30%, cut energy costs, and help meet sustainability targets.
At Shenton Group, we maintain and optimise CHP systems to ensure they deliver maximum efficiency and ROI – helping residential developments and similar achieve greener energy and lower bills without compromising reliability.
