Located deep in the heartlands of south Galway, Leitrim Ballydugan Community Centre is a focal point for the local region.
The facility is used all year round by people of all ages for a wide range of youth projects, sporting and recreational activities.
The Centre is managed by a forward thinking group of volunteers who wanted to lead by example, showcasing the potential of renewable energy technologies to the local community.
"I would definitely recommend communities to consider solar. Electricity and insurance bills are the most expensive bills you will get throughout the year. You cannot do anything on the insurance, but you can do something about your electricity."
“Solgrid handled the installation and the project 110%, very professional! I actually just handed them over the information from the ESB bills and they came up with a proposal, drew up the plans and handled all the technical details. We made an appointment to meet here on site, decided where all the equipment was going to go and apart from that I really had nothing much more to do with it.”
The Solgrid team designed and delivered an excellent solution with a short payback period, enabling the Centre to save money from the moment it was switched on.
The Solgrid team designed a bespoke solution to reduce the Centre's running costs, create a new source of revenue, and maximise the building’s sustainability credentials.
