Ltd via email to tenders@drnolans.co.uk no later than 5pm on Thursday 13th March 2025 ## Description The Royal Institution resides in a Grade I listed building located on Albemarle Street, Mayfair within the City of Westminster. Project Description The Royal Institution's mission for over two centuries has been to connect people with science on a global scale. As an independent registered charity, the Ri is committed to science education, public engagement, and heritage activities, catering to diverse audiences worldwide. Entering a new strategic phase, the Ri envisions science accessible to all, believing in its transformative power across various aspects of modern life. As advocates for equitable access to science, the Ri bridges the gap between the public and scientists, nurturing curiosity, exploration, and engagement. It serves as a welcoming home for science enthusiasts of all backgrounds. To support this goal Ri has secured £4.35 million in funding from the Greater London Authority (GLA) for its Footprint Project to reduce the environmental impact of the building. This funding will be the catalyst for a comprehensive retrofit of the building, including the improvement of building plant, services and systems and sensitive enhancement of building fabric. The Footprint Project should serve as a precedent for successfully retrofitting a Grade I listed building to mitigate environmental impact and provide climate resilience. Ri project objectives • Upholding the Institution's core values as expounded in their strategic vision, to ensure openness, equitable access, and wide participation by the public. • Minimise the environmental impact of the organisation. • Conserve and repair the building fabric for future generations. • Chart a course to net-zero emissions, partnering with Imperial College London. • Addressing energy consumption and waste within the organisation. Project scope Proposals have been developed through: • An understanding of the programme and mandatory requirements from the GLA as funder, essentially to ensure 35% reduction in operational carbon and reach an EPC rating of C (from current EPC of G). • A road map to net zero strategy informed by following the energy hierarchy and energy utilisation metrics to ensure the long-term sustainable improvement of the building and how it is experienced and used. • Provision of an holistic, incremental and integrated approach, prioritizing works based upon tangible benefit, where any maladaptation is avoided, and where no works prejudice the successful delivery of those to follow. • Appreciation of the Ri as a working building with constraints around how and when work can be carried-out. In optimising the project scope and ambition with the heritage and immediate GLA funding and key programme drivers, the design team has made recommendations on how the works could be phased. The works are planned to commence as soon as possible after 2nd June 2025 award date and a Listed Building Consent Application has been submitted on 28th February 2025 to enable those works.
