Westfield is dedicated to playing an active role in supporting the communities in which it operates. Westfield is focused on the long-term prosperity of city centres, working in partnership with local councils, regeneration agencies and architects to develop the long-term vision and masterplan for town centre development and city regeneration programmes.
regeneration & sustainability Every new project presents an opportunity to improve the design and efficiency of our shopping centres. Conservation of energy and water, recycling and use of materials which have a low-environmental impact are all high on the Westfield agenda. Westfield redesigned Westfield London to improve its environmental performance. Energy consumption has been reduced by some 20% through design initiatives, temperature control and overall building management; lighting and water heating to peripheral buildings is via photo voltaic and solar panels, storm water flow is partly retained and reused. Setting new standards for large scale development, some of the most far reaching environmentally sustainable strategies have been produced to guide the design, construction and operation of Westfield’s Stratford City development. Energy and carbon emission reduction is a priority for Stratford City, where 75% of all power will be provided through an on-site combined cooling heat and power plant. The development will also feature efficient building design, rainwater harvesting and a consolidated waste management centre - all helping to make Westfield Stratford City one of the UK’s most environmentally-efficient retail centres.
