Prospect for change
Panasonic Heating & Cooling Solutions has successfully supported Together Housing in the decarbonisation of Prospect House, demonstrating how commercial buildings can transition away from fossil fuel heating while improving comfort, efficiency and sustainability.
The project marks another milestone in the longstanding partnership between Panasonic and Together Housing, which has already delivered more than 2,000 domestic heat pump retrofits across the housing association’s residential portfolio. Building on this success, Together Housing has now expanded its decarbonisation programme into commercial properties as part of its ambitious commitment to achieve Net Zero and remove fossil fuels from its buildings by 2038.
To support the project, Panasonic’s M Series R290 air-to-water heat pumps were installed at Prospect House, replacing three gas boilers with four 30kW units. Designed specifically for larger commercial applications, the M Series provides a flexible, low carbon solution capable of delivering high performance heating while reducing carbon emissions and running costs.
Together Housing has set ambitious sustainability targets, including the removal of fossil fuel heating from at least 29,000 homes while also decarbonising its commercial estate. The organisation actively tracks progress through a carbon reduction dashboard, monitoring savings and environmental impact across its portfolio.
