The electric supply to The Van Alen estate was upgraded in September 2024.
The Van Alen is fed by four, mostly ducted, 95mm2 cables from the substation in Madeira Place. The cables are routed under the walkway behind the mews houses, down under the steps and enter the underground car park high up on the wall above the sump pump control panel. The four supply cables from the Madeira Place substation. The joint pots are located underground between the walkway steps and the wall of the underground car park.
