Dalkia to Implement M&E Systems for British Museum's Energy Centre Project
The British Museum has selected Dalkia to manage mechanical and electrical systems for a new energy centre aimed at eliminating fossil fuels and reducing carbon emissions by 1,700 tonnes annually. The project involves civil engineering, an overhaul of existing energy infrastructure, and construction of three buildings. The energy centre will replace gas boilers with an all-electric system, including heat pumps and an electrical boiler. Construction began in autumn 2024, with completion expected in 2029. The project is valued at £33 million.

Dalkia has been appointed by the British Museum for the mechanical and electrical (M&E) systems of a new energy centre that will eliminate fossil fuels and cut carbon emissions by 1,700 tonnes annually. The scope includes civil engineering and a complete upgrade of energy infrastructure across three buildings.
The project replaces gas-fired boilers with an all-electric system featuring a 5.1MW air-source heat pump and a 7MW water-source heat pump. Construction of the energy centre commenced in autumn 2024, and overall completion is scheduled for 2029. The initiative is valued at £33 million.
