consumption leads to cost savings in operating the major plant. This aspect provided the client with great satisfaction as it not only promotes environmental sustainability, but also enhances the project’s economic viability. Overall, the design of the energy centre’s heating system reflects a holistic approach to energy management, balancing environmental responsibility with practical considerations of cost efficiency. THE CHALLENGE Being involved from the early stages of the project proved invaluable for Kerrigan Mechanical. It enabled the company to draw on its extensive experience from previous schemes to anticipate and mitigate potential issues before they could escalate. By promptly submitting queries to the design team and addressing any concerns proactively, momentum was maintained to keep the project on track, even surpassing milestones. One of the key advantages of early coordination was the ability to identify and address builders’ work openings, a notoriously tricky aspect of any

construction project. The team was able to streamline the coordination process and minimise disruptions, ensuring seamless integration between its work and that of other subcontractors. Overall, early involvement and coordination were essential for the success of the project. It allowed Kerrigan Mechanical to leverage its expertise, optimise project workflows and ultimately deliver results that exceeded expectations. Adam Dent, Senior Contracts Manager at Kerrigan Mechanical, said, “The technology behind district heating has been tried and tested, and Kerrigan Mechanical has been at the forefront of its implementation since its early inception in Ireland. “We were therefore thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute our expertise to such a prestigious project in the heart of Dublin. “I would like to extend a special mention to our supply partners and our own team for their invaluable support throughout the duration of the project. With strict timeframes and deadlines to adhere to, the collaboration and commitment of our suppliers were paramount in achieving our desired targets. “The decision by BAM, alongside the

developer Marlet, to select district heating for this project speaks volumes about the effectiveness and reliability of this heating solution. “It is a testament to the confidence placed in Kerrigan Mechanical’s capabilities that we were chosen as the preferred contractor for this scheme. “Our track record of successfully completing projects of similar scale and complexity instilled further confidence that our company would deliver results that met and exceeded expectations. “We are proud to have played a role in bringing this innovative heating solution to fruition and look forward to continuing to contribute to the advancement of sustainable and efficient heating technologies in future projects.”
