Carillion has been selected to deliver the £400 million first phase of redevelopment at Battersea Power Station.

The project is a mixed-use development comprising 866 apartments, including 11 penthouses, together with retail facilities, theatre space and business studios, in two blocks built on a podium with two levels of basement parking.

The redevelopment project will be located within the area bounded by Battersea Power Station to the East, the main railway serving Victoria Station to the West and the river Thames to the North.

The main block will vary in height from 8 storeys at its southern end, rising to 18 storeys and then reducing to 12 storeys at its northern end.

The second block will be 8 storeys high. Extensive hard and soft landscaping is included as part of the Phase 1 works.

This project forms part of the overall strategy to create a high-density, mixed-use development around the restored former Grade II* Power Station.

Main construction works for Phase 1 will start in the summer of 2013 and are scheduled for completion in 2016.
