Zeal Hotels held a topping-out ceremony for voco Zeal Exeter Science Park.
voco Zeal Exeter Science Park will be located adjacent to J29 of the M5 motorway, just a five-minute drive from Exeter Airport. It will be situated at the heart of Exeter Science Park which, once fully developed, will be home to around 76,366m2 of buildings for science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine (STEMM) businesses.
The four-star, 142-bedroom hotel, constructed with half the embodied carbon of a standard hotel, will generate 100% of electricity consumed via the photo voltaic roof and wall panels, positioning it firmly in line with the 2050 Paris Agreement requirements and exceeding 2030 targets.
The building, which achieved the BREEAM Outstanding rating at the design stage, is currently on schedule in week 39 of a 75-week construction programme.
As a fully sustainable operation, produce will be sourced locally or grown on site, stimulate economic growth through job creation and investment and attract the environmentally conscious to the city.
voco Zeal Exeter Science Park remains on schedule to complete in December this year, with official opening planned for January 2025.
