Battersea Power Station announces today that it will open its doors to the

public for the first time in history from Friday 14th October 2022. Electric

Power Station, between Frank Gehry's Prospect Place and Foster + Partners'

Battersea Roof Gardens to the new Battersea Power Station Zone 1 Underground

station, will also open on the same day.

Simon Murphy, CEO at Battersea Power Station Development Company (BPSDC), said:

"It has taken a lot of hard work, determination, and the continued commitment

of the Malaysian Shareholders over the past ten years to bring Battersea Power

Station back to its former glory. Announcing that we will be opening the

building to the public for the first time in history in just over a month's

time is a monumental moment for the project. We can't wait to welcome the first

visitors, and show the local community, Londoners, and the rest of the world,

the historic beauty of the Grade II* listed building, which has been

transformed into London's most unique destination for all to enjoy."

The Power Station has been under the custodianship of the current shareholders,

Sime Darby Property, S P Setia and the Employees' Provident Fund (EPF) since

2012, and during this time, the Grade II* listed building has been

painstakingly restored to its former glory. In 2019, PNB and EPF became the

long-term commercial asset holders securing the future of the landmark for many

generations.
