The Eryri Communities Fund has recently provided essential finance assistance towards erecting solar panels on Bala Golf Club’s roof. Not only does this significant development emphasise the club’s commitment towards sustainability but also brings additional benefits to the local rural area.
In a rural area like Bala a club like this serves as a community hub which provides social and leisure opportunities. This project will ensure that the club can continue to operate and provide opportunities for people to come together and enjoy outdoor activities.
Installing solar panels on the club’s roof will have a significant impact on the club’s energy usage and associated costs. Through harnessing the sun’s energy the club will reduce their dependence on traditional energy sources significantly which will lead to a reduction in their energy bills. The savings can then be re-invested in the club’s facilities to improve players and members’ experiences.
By producing clean renewable energy, the club are reducing their carbon footprint and are contributing towards the worldwide action against climate change. This forward-thinking initiative is a great example for other local businesses and organisations and will inspire sustainable actions and a greener future.
