Electricity provision for the heat pumps sourced from a solar PV array. Ilkeston Hospital Derbyshire Solar PV (212 panels) to reduce energy bills by 5500 per year and CO2 emissions by 24 tonnes per year. Pilgrim Hospital Lincolnshire mass boiler saving 50% of CO2 (6000 tonnes per year). Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow Essex Largest array of solar panels. Solar thermal collectors to preheat boiler feed water. Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kings Lynn 800kW wind turbine supplying 18% of electicity needs Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust - Kings Mill Hospital A 5.4MW ground-source cooling system (also provides low grade heating to the gas fired boiler installation) University Hospital of South Manchester mass and Ground Source to supply 40% of energy requirements (up to 57% less CO2). Wansbeck Hospital Northumberland Use of wind energy to power its wards and operating theatres. Warwick and Stratford Hospitals Installation of solar panels Washington Galleries Health Centre, Sunderland Array of solar panels to provide domestic hot water (70-80% of demand).

5 Whitchurch Community Hospital Renewable heating provided by biomass boiler system (fuelled by wood pellets). Gunderson Lutheran Hospital 100% RES by 2014 (biogas /biomass, solar electricity/thermal systems, wind farm) 200% later. Kaiser Permanente 15MW solar installation will supply around 10% of the energy use for 15 facilities Marian Medical Centre Use of landfill gas as a source of energy that supplies 95% of electricity Partners Healthcare (PHS) 10MW offsite photovoltaic installation to serve several PHS Hospitals Patrick H Dollard Health Center Sutter Auburn Faith Hospital Ground source heat pumps supplemented by energy generated by wind farms 736kW solar system being installed as car shades (50% of its energy needs)
