Re-building critical infrastructure

Peru / Reconstruction with changes

When El Niño hit Peru in 2017, causing over $5bn damage to critical infrastructure, hundreds of thousands of people lost their homes and livelihoods.

Peru selected the UK as delivery partner under a government-to-government contract, to restore the country's infrastructure and build resilience for the future.

As part of the UK Delivery Team, Gleeds is accelerating the reconstruction of Peru with 74 new schools, 15 hospitals, 20 flood defence projects, 51,000 hectares of reforestation and a world class early warning system.

The programme has created 9,000 jobs for local workers, with knowledge transfer and training creating long lasting socio-economic benefits for communities across the country.

Commercial

105 Victoria Street

London / BentallGreenOak

The UK's largest all-electric office

Fuelled by fully renewable sources, 105 Victoria Street will be the first office building to target a combined BREEAM ‘Outstanding’, 5.5* NABERS rating, and an ‘A rated’ EPC.

Gleeds is the lead cost consultant and employer’s agent for this ambitious London project in 2022, located just a short walk from Buckingham Palace.

The 640,000 sq ft commercial-led mixed-use scheme is targeting operational net zero as well as delivering net zero embodied carbon by 2026; thanks to ultra-low carbon construction techniques.

A process of microclimate, wind, and acoustic analyses will create an environment that is as comfortable and healthy as it is energy and resource efficient.

With its central location and vast pedestrian flow, the project has a unique opportunity to become a public destination that enhances the urban settings, with spaces for collaboration, celebration, and relaxation.
