Sustainable sport at Gloucestershire club
Forest Green Rovers FC has installed a 46.92kW Mitsubishi Electric Photovoltaic system onto its terrace roof, with the aim of helping reduce the Gloucestershire team's carbon footprint. The move also generates an annual income for the Sustainability in Sport foundation via the government's Feed In Tariff.
The solar array is the first in a series of green energy projects being undertaken by Sustainability in Sport - set up by former Manchester United star Gary Neville and Dale Vince, the founder of green energy company Ecotricity - which are aimed at reducing the environmental impact of sport. Vince said: "Sustainability in Sport was created to inspire change within the sports community and to urgently address the significant environmental impact of sport.
"We're here to change the rules of the game - putting sustainability into the heart of sport." The solar panels, installed over four days by Hemel Hempstead-based Beba Energy, will be used to power floodlights and maintenance equipment such as electric mowers and strimmers.
