West Lothian Golf Club

Project Background

West Lothian Golf Club is a well established golf club serving its local community, with facilities that required significant energy usage throughout the year. Rising electricity costs and a desire to improve sustainability led the club to explore renewable energy solutions. Installing solar panels on the clubhouse roof was identified as an effective way to reduce energy bills and lower carbon emissions, however securing funding was essential to make the project financially viable.

What we did

We worked closely with West Lothian Golf Club to identify suitable grant funding and manage the full application process for the solar panel installation.

• Learned about the clubs needs and identified a grant that supported their project

• Agreed with the club that this funding was the most reliable and successful option

• Gained a clear understanding of the club’s energy usage, project scope and sustainability goals

• Collected all technical and organisational information required for the application

• Fully wrote and submitted the grant application on behalf of the club

• Liaised with the funders throughout the process to ensure smooth communication

• Successfully secured £8,000 in grant funding

• Supported the club through receiving the funds and implementing the solar installation

  
  

This funding has helped the club reduce energy costs, improve sustainability and invest savings back into the facilities for members and visitors.
