PTSG to protect green makeover project in City

Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) is to provide specialist electrical services at a ‘reimagined’ office building and grounds in the heart of the City of London. 

The nine-storey Woolgate Exchange, newly names Woolgate, is undergoing a major refurbishment which will see the introduction of a new 1,500-square-feet rooftop pavilion with unique views of St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Square Mile’s tall building cluster. 

The renovated building will feature over 20,000 square feet total external terrace amenity, providing urban greening, biodiversity, and generous outdoor space on the majority of upper floors. The current reception area leading onto Basinghall Street will be enlarged and a new entrance will be created on Coleman Street, complemented by a ‘pocket park’ and new retail amenity.

The building will be all-electric, with no fossil fuel or gas boilers on site, and 100% green power purchase agreements (PPA) are being used. It is targeting a 4.5* NABERS rating and BREEAM Excellent. An open space has been created with a fountain, grassed areas and seating, overlooked by a café to the north that animates the new ‘City Square’ and general public realm. 

PTSG Electrical Services Ltd has been selected to provide a brand-new lightning protection system at the building, the development of which is now well underway.
