Liverpool Anfield redevelopment
- Non-Residential
- Carried out in United Kingdom in 2026
- Product(s) used: ICS 5000
- Energy Centre
The project focused on the regeneration of Anfield, increasing capacity to 60,000 while preserving its famous atmosphere. As part of this modernization, a 700kVA generator with an acoustic enclosure was installed for backup power. Schiedel supplied the ICS 5000 flue system, a high-spec twin-wall stainless steel solution insulated with superwool, designed to withstand high pressures across the new infrastructure.
Challenge
The primary challenge was the complex routing required within the historic stadium structure. The 300mm ID pipe had to navigate a difficult series of 90° and 45° turns to reach the exhaust point. The run moved horizontally from the silencer, through a first-floor plant room, and across internal walls before rising ten meters externally. This intricate path required precision engineering to ensure proper flow and structural integrity.
Solution
Schiedel’s ICS 5000 was the ideal choice for this high-pressure application. Its 25mm high-density superwool insulation ensured thermal efficiency, while the stainless steel build provided the durability needed for a premier stadium. By coordinating with Dieselec, Schiedel delivered a system that successfully maneuvered the complex layout. This project reinforced our status as the preferred partner for critical, high-profile commercial developments.
The Customer
Liverpool Football Club is one of the most historic and successful sports institutions globally. For their massive Anfield redevelopment, they required partners who could match their elite status and handle the pressure of an iconic landmark. Dieselec Thistle Generators was chosen to provide the backup power infrastructure, bringing years of expertise in major infrastructure to ensure the stadium's critical services remained uninterrupted.
