Loads of progress on site at the Chinley & Buxworth Community Centre.

Imagine a town or city sharing one huge boiler or air conditioner. Instead of each building needing its own heating and cooling units, they’re all connected to a central energy plant, making good use of renewable energy sources and creating less pollution.

Welcome to our new recruit - Joe Thompson - who's joining D3A as a Graduate Engineer. Joe served for 6 years in the Royal Marines before completing a degree in Architectural Engineering at the University of Leeds.

Since the tragic events at Grenfell Tower, seven years ago, the spotlight was rightly turned onto the fire safety issues surrounding the cladding of buildings.

The search is on... the d3associates team are looking for highly motivated engineers to help deliver a diverse range of energy projects across the UK.

More good news from our client the Yorkshire North & East Methodist District.

The Government’s Heat Network Efficiency Scheme (HNES) is awarding over £3 million in funding in the present round and the great news for the D3A Energy team is that 2 of our schemes have been included.

What a magnificent roof structure our drone footage has revealed. We’re delighted to be working locally with Queen's Hall Arts Centre, Hexham on a high level Condition Survey.

The D3A Energy team are heading south this week.

The D3A Senior Management Team are together for the next couple of days - with Stuart travelling up from Newark (or the deep south as we like to call it).

The D3A team have travelled to Derbyshire today for the Chinley & Buxworth Community Centre Pre-Start Meeting.
