Lakehouse's Managing Director Sean Birrane and members of the delivery team were delighted to join Professor Tony Day for the opening of CEREB, the UK's first urban centre of excellence in low carbon technologies.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson was there to officially open the innovative new facilities, which Lakehouse has created at roof level on the London South Bank University's new K2 building, at the heart of the Southwark campus. The centre has been specially designed as a walk through demonstration facility, and will provide direct access to the building's installed mechanical engineering and renewable low carbon energy technologies.

Professor Day is delighted with the results, later saying "I want to say a huge thank you to the core team who have made CEREB come to life. Four years ago this was just an idea, and now it's a real entity. I can't quite believe the journey.

Throughout the project you have all shown so much commitment to delivering this amazing facility. And it truly is amazing. The effort has been immense, and the team working truly excellent. I have learned so much throughout this whole project, and finally realise just how essential every part in the process is if we are to achieve outstanding results.

I really just want to re-iterate my sincere gratitude to you all. I am in your debt."
