This structure, built in 1950, stores 2,500 cubic meters of hot water and supplies the surrounding Churchill Gardens housing estate with heat and hot water. It used to store excess heat from Battersea power station, located across the Thames, allowing it to generate electricity and store hot water in periods of low demand. The tower was upgraded in 2006 with the addition of a gas boiler that allows it to supply an extra 1,400 homes.Credit:Martin Bond / Science SourceSize:5125px × 3417px (~50 MB)Restrictions:No Sale through SubagentsGet PricingHow Will The Visual Be Used?ShareKeywords:accumulator tower-apartments-architecture-building-C021/3944-C0213944-chp-churchill gardens estate-city-develop-district heating-engineering-estate-europe-flats-grade ii listed-hot water-houses-housing-housing estate-listed building-london-pimlico-plimlico district heating undertaking-power-storage-structure-supply-supplying-technology-uk-urban-westminster councilModel release:N/AParent folder:SPL FTP 1409-1410
