Warilla Bowls and Recreation Club in Illawarra on the NSW coast is boosting its rooftop solar capacity to an impressive total of 414kW, adding a 314kW array to the Club’s, existing 100kW system, in a move it expects to cut grid power consumption by 25 per cent.
The new array – most of which will be installed on the roof of the Club’s indoor bowling greens, pictured above – is expected to deliver savings of around $75,000 a year for the venue, both from reduced electricity bills and from the trading of Large-scale Generation Certificates.
