Hundreds of council flats in Leeds are set to be transformed as part of a cheaper heating initiative.
Energy and regeneration specialist Equans began work in late 2022, on the £25m transformation of seven tower blocks as part of Leeds City Council’s drive to deliver high-quality homes while also tackling fuel poverty and the climate emergency. Residents are now benefiting from the improvements, which have been completed at six of the blocks – Parkway Court, Parkway Grange and Parkway Towers in Seacroft and Lovell Park Grange, Lovell Park Heights and Lovell Park Towers in Little London.
' Residents in the 600-plus flats across the seven blocks will enjoy cheaper fuel bills while also cutting the city’s carbon emissions. The average annual energy costs for each flat are expected to halve, while the amount of CO2 being produced by the average property is predicted to drop by around a third. Work at the seventh block, Moor Grange Court in West Park, is due to finish in the next few months.
