Centre for Resilience in Environment, Water and Waste (CREWW) Building

Education Case Study

The creation of a new building for water research facility, Centre for Resilience in Environment, Water and Waste.

This project consisted of a brand-new build, facilitated by a joint venture between South West Water and the University of Exeter.

INTOHEAT were instructed across an array of works covering heating, ventilation, energy, security, electrical and more.

Researching some of the most important challenges faced by the water sector today, the new CREWW building will be critical in actions including:

  • Protecting the water supply network
  • Maintaining a sustainable water supply-and-demand balance
  • Predicting and preventing pollutions
  • Safely treating and transporting wastewater
  • Understanding environmental resilience
  • Enabling a transition to Net Zero
