Tottenham Hotspur

The Club has put in technologies throughout its Training Centre to deliver renewable energy to the development, including 75m2 Solar Panels and air source heat pumps
Other aspects of the building design include insulation, solar shading and building fabric thermal performance that reduce the need for additional energy usage
Carbon dioxide emissions from the Stadium are around 50% less than a stadium built 10 years ago and the entire development is targeting a 22% improvement on the Building Regulations baseline

The Lodge (Spurs’ training facility) achieves a BREEAM rating of ‘Excellent’ and achieves a 36.6% reduction in regulated carbon emissions meeting the London Plan target set for all major developments
The building fabric of the stadium has been designed to be highly insulated to reduce heating and cooling demands
LED lighting (including floodlights) and high-efficiency building services systems in place to reduce energy use
A range of other initiatives are in place including intelligent controls, attenuation water tanks and green roofs on the Tottenham Experience

The new stadium is actively promoted as a ‘Public Transport Destination’, with service improvements, new shuttle bus links, better pedestrian connections, real-time travel information points, clear signage and regular transport updates on the Club’s website, in printed programmes and directly to fans from several sources
A major focus on public transport will reduce impacts from vehicle traffic around the stadium on match days and there has already been a significant shift in travel patterns to the stadium area
In 2003, over 60% of fans came by car. For weekend fixtures that figure reduced to 42% in 2014 and we plan to bring that number down to a maximum of 24% in the future

Dry Mixed Recycling bins located throughout the stadium concourses, alongside General Waste bins, with fans instructed on how to correctly dispose of their waste
After matches, Dry Mixed Recycling bins are taken to a nearby Material Recovery Facility in Edmonton where the waste is separated to produce quality, single-stream materials that are then baled and sent to the most sustainable companies for re-processing
A full site waste-management plan has been developed for the Training Centre, which includes a green-waste recycling facility nearby
Recycling page on website to educate fans

Water consumption is minimised across the stadium with waterless urinals and low-flow fittings and fixtures
At the Training Centre, a sedum ‘green roof’ has been installed to significant portions of the main building to enable the capture and re-harvesting of rain water across the site
A comprehensive drainage and extraction system is in place including through the installation of an attenuation pond and two onsite bore holes that extract water with licences and agreement from the Environment Agency
