St Michael’s is a vibrant community Tennis Club in Blackrock Cork City and has been serving the community for 100 years.  It has 5 fully floodlit courts and a practice wall. There is also a clubhouse which contains changing rooms with showers and toilets and kitchen facilities to cater for the various events throughout the year. The flood lighting for the courts was old and they were using a large amount of energy, resulting in high energy bills for the club.  The clubhouse building was also in need of repair and was very difficult to heat. The challenge was to improve the club’s energy efficiency, reduce operational costs, and create a more sustainable environment.
