Golf remains the fifth most popular sport in the country and figures from Statista 2016 show that 1.13 million adults play golf on a monthly basis across the two and half thousand golf courses currently operating in Great Britain. Nevertheless, golf membership is in decline, which means that golf clubs must ensure they spend every penny wisely and consider areas where they can cut costs.
Green credentials are essential for any business and it’s true that sometimes golf clubs have had a bad reputation in the past. However, today’s modern golf clubs recognize the value of not just looking after their own greens, but the wider environment. It’s great PR to be able to shout about the savings you have made on your energy consumption from both a monetary and usage perspective.

The Carbon Trust advises a social and working space like a golf club house should have a temperature of between 16 – 20°C. Invest in a thermostat that can be timed to go off and on where necessary. In the warmer, summer months turn it off completely and even in winter, set it to go off an hour before close down – there will be no noticeable change to customers. Think about where you place the thermostat – sunlight or radiators could affect the reading. Consider investing in a compensator, which regulates the temperature based on the weather, it could save your golf club thousands of pounds.
Lighting – your golf club could be spending 20% of its electricity costs on lighting which means it makes sense to have the most cost efficient and appropriate lighting for your needs. A quick win is to ensure all light switches have switch off notices to remind everyone to turn them off if they are the last to leave a room. Staff and members have a role to play and everyone should be encouraged to save lighting energy. Replace tungsten standard light bulbs with CFLs which last eight times longer and only use a quarter of the energy. Replace fluorescent tubes with tri-phosphor coated tubes with give a much better, natural light. Consider using occupancy sensors in the club house toilets and store rooms, these can achieve up to 30% on lighting costs.
Refrigeration uses a lot of electricity. Keep doors closed when not in use and defrost regularly to prolong the life of your equipment and save money. Do you need to keep chilled cabinets on overnight? If not, switch off. Does your cooking equipment need to be switched on right away? Modern catering equipment reaches optimum temperature very quickly and so doesn’t need to be switched on to ‘warm up.’ Make sure when you buy any piece of new equipment it meets the highest energy performance standards and keep up to date with servicing.
It’s really important to have a nominated member of staff or a small team of staff or even committee members that have ‘energy saving’ as part of their job role. Once an initial energy audit has been conducted there should be a regular ‘inspections’ to ensure good behaviours and housekeeping is maintained.
Check for gaps in the fabric of the clubhouse building around doors and windows which could be an issue in older buildings. In addition to letting warm air out and cold air in, small issues can quickly become big problems and so address them right away.
Always check for damp, move items of furniture away from outside walls once or twice a year to look for tell-tale signs, and if you have a cellar this may need looking at more than twice a year.
Walk around the outside of the building too and make sure leaking gutters or faulty roof tiles are replaced quickly. A quarter of your club house’s heat can be lost through a poorly insulated roof. This could add hundreds of pounds to your bills and so while it may look like an expensive repair in the short term, it will save you a lot of money in the longer term.
Why not set targets to reduce your energy consumption by 5 – 10% over a year and get all staff and members involved. You could even offer a prize to anyone who develops the best energy saving suggestion.
It’s important to make energy efficiency a club wide issue. Explain to staff and members the benefits of increased efficiency to their club house. It’s not just about saving money – although that is always important, it’s also about reducing your carbon footprint and showing your local community that you care about the environment. After all, golf clubs are a large part of the local area.
You don’t need us to tell you how water is not only a major cost for your golf course – but also a source of contention when it comes to sustainability. Did you know that as well as finding a gas and electricity supplier for your golf club – Utility Bidder can also find an alternative water provider for your golf club too? As you are no doubt aware, the water supply industry has been deregulated which means you can buy your water from anywhere in the country. While prices in this field area quite similar, we will work with suppliers to ensure your golf course is getting the best possible deal for its water supply.
In our experience, one in five businesses have experienced issues with their water supply and we have successfully worked with many businesses to deliver rebates for them where there have been issues. We will work with your golf club to carry out a water audit that will not only work to save you money and gain rebates but to explore water saving devices that could save your golf club money.
Paul Kay was fantastic in securing us a great deal and explaining everything in full. Thanks and would wholeheartedly recommended.
Excellent service from Kenny in the Manchester office, he worked hard to find the best price for me and explained everything along the way.
Will definitely use him again in the future and would recommend.
I spoke to Paul Kay this morning who in the space of 30 mins looks to have halved my salon electric bill, he was personable, knowledgeable and honest. The proof will be seeing if the bills actually reduce and if so I will leave another review but so far an excellent service
I dealt with Utility Bidder over the past couple of days, amazing service and prompt. Paul Kay gave excellent customer service! would highly reccomend.
Without a doubt utility bidder has saved my sanity. They have sorted months of going around in circles with a supplier in under a week.
I would highly recommend to everyone I know.
Had a lovely phone call from Connor this morning, he was very helpful, explained everything very clearing and all I had to do was agree to everything that was suggested and he done the rest! Very happy with the service
