HUTTON Moor Leisure Centre, part of the Parkwood Leisure estate, has made significant strides in sustainability and community engagement, solidifying the operator’s commitment to environmental responsibility and improved wellbeing in the local community.
In an exciting move towards improved management and operational control, Parkwood Leisure, in collaboration with North Somerset Council, has upgraded the building management system.
These changes have led to significantly reduced carbon emissions and increases in energy efficiency for the leisure centre.
Parkwood Leisure managing director Glen Hall said: “This project highlights Parkwood Leisure’s commitment to the environmental responsibility that comes with running leisure facilities.
“By upgrading the key systems that support the operational running of the centre, we are able to simultaneously improve the experience of the local community while maximising sustainability for a greener future.”
The project, which has been running since November, has reduced Hutton Moor Leisure Centre’s electricity consumption by up to 60,000KWh and gas by 18,000KWh with total carbon emission savings of over 60 tonnes per year.
These upgrades mean it is possible for centre staff to monitor the demands of essential functions such as lighting, heating and AC.
