John McAslan + Partners designed two technically advanced, environmentally innovative Energy Centres for the 2012 London Olympic Games site to supply power for all the Olympic stadia and associated facilities. In Olympic Legacy mode the Centres continue to supply electricity to local communities, and the structures are landmarks at the eastern and western boundaries of a huge tranche of East London that is being regenerated. The Energy Centres add to the area’s architectural character, with a deliberately tough and industrial design inspired by London’s great historic power stations.
