April
2010 - Electricity Generation - UPDATE
The first phase of the club's application to install a wind turbine on site has
been successful. A grant for approximately half the sum required from the
Department of Energy & Climate Change has been approved. The next phase of
the project involves an application for planning and landlord permissions.
Should these permissions be forthcoming we will then apply for grants for the
balance of the sum required from various sources. The next phase will take
a minimum of ten weeks and we will of course keep you up to date.More on Electricity

February 2010 - Electricity Generation
The
cost of electricity supply to the club is currently one of our major overhead
costs, approximately £1200 per annum. We are in the last year of a three
year contract with our current supplier and bearing in mind the uplift in costs
per KWh over the past two years we can expect a significant increase in any
future tariff offered by the electricity generators.
One possibility that we have recently been made aware of is that of generating
our own source of electricity through the on-site installation of a wind
turbine.
