Can Offsite Energy Pods Transform How We Upgrade School Plant Rooms?
Cindy Kings, Associate Project Manager, Mott Macdonald | Ian Keeling, MEP Specialist, Cundall

This session explores a five‑site pilot using offsite‑manufactured Energy Pods to replace traditional school plant rooms with end of life boilers. The approach aims to reduce disruption, improve installation quality, and provide a scalable solution for ageing heating infrastructure. Attendees will gain insight into how modular, factory‑built plant rooms can support faster, safer, and more efficient upgrades across school estates.
