Solar panels for the leisure industry

Award-winning sustainable solutions for the leisure industry

Our renewable energy solutions have been widely adopted across leisure centres in the UK.

With energy-intensive fitness equipment and high foot traffic throughout the day, these facilities face substantial power demands. Leisure centres typically operate from early morning until late at night, with peak energy usage occurring in the early evenings as people finish work. As a result, they require a consistent power supply throughout the day and into the night, while also managing the spikes in energy consumption.

Why solar energy is a great solution for the leisure industry

Solar PV can effectively address significant power demands by providing a consistent and renewable energy source, leading to measurable financial benefits for leisure facilities. Any excess energy generated can be stored for peak usage times, such as during busy evenings, or even sold back to the grid through programs like the Feed-In Tariff.

Additionally, solar panel installations are excellent for the environment. They offer all these advantages while significantly reducing each facility’s carbon footprint.

Why use solar panels for your business?

In such circumstances, the shortcomings in an inefficient energy plan can quickly stack up, meaning that leisure facilities staff can find themselves with hefty and unwelcome bills.

Solar power can help offset these massive power demands, by providing a steady, limitless source of energy that provides these facilities with measurable financial benefits. Excess power can be stored for when it’s needed most (such as those intensive evening slots), or even sold to the government using the Feed In Tariff.

What’s more, a solar panel solution is fantastic for the environment, and can provide all these benefits while drastically reducing each facility’s carbon footprint.

Finance for the installation of solar panels in the leisure sector
Whether you’re a single site business or a multi-site leisure group, a self-funded solar PV system is a great idea. It will help you to save money on one of your biggest bills – electricity, and give you the opportunity for a second income stream via the Government’s feed-in tariff.

If you’re part of a larger multi-site group, you may also be able to benefit from free solar, through a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). If successful, you’ll have a free solar PV system installed and maintained for 20-40 years. Benefits include zero initial costs and reduced electricity costs from then on, as you purchase your generated electricity at an extremely affordable pre-agreed rate.

For the ultimate in cutting-edge solutions, why not pair your solar panels with our other renewable energy solutions? LED Lighting and Infrared Heating can save you thousands too.
