Vital Energi have posted a video detailing their energy efficient 'Tri-generation' scheme, which is responsible for powering, heating and cooling MediaCity.

The BREEAM approved Tri-Gen scheme sits underneath the MediaCityUK car park, uses water from the Manchester Ship Canal and promises to reduce Co2 emissions through the use of a combined heat and power system.



You can read more about the ins-and-outs of the system at Vital Energi.

The video was created by Andrew Li, who also made the popular MediaCity 'Take Note' promo video.

Debate about the BBC's staff relocation packages continues to rumble on and on - Liz Hunt at the Telegraph says, "I can't be the only taxpayer with northern credentials who feels insulted by the implication that having to up sticks from the South East is akin to an enforced relocation to Mogadishu or Harare."
