The facility, Bridge Point Barking, will come up at Bridge’s first development site in the country, and is expected to be ready in December this year.
Located on Alfreds Way, Bridge Point Barking will provide last-mile logistics space in a detached self-contained unit.
To promote net-zero carbon goal, the facility will be equipped with roof-mounted solar photovoltaics that will generate nearly 140,000kWh per year.
Further, the use of glazing and fabric in building orientation will help reduce energy consumption and related emissions.
