Solar, batteries and lower energy bills for gyms

Gyms open early, close late and run air conditioning, lighting, screens and hot showers the whole time. We cut the bill from the contract up, then add solar and a battery to cover the busy evening.

In short

Gyms use power from 5am to late at night. We check the contract first, then add solar for the day and a battery for the evening rush.

A gym's power use follows its members: a rush before work, a steady day, and a big evening peak. Air conditioning, lighting, treadmills and screens run throughout, and hot showers, spas and pools add heating on top. Solar covers the day. The evening rush, when power costs the most, is where a battery or a better contract makes the difference.

The challenge

Where gyms lose money on power

  • The evening peakThe busiest hours are the most expensive ones, after solar has stopped.
  • Hot water and pool heatingGas or old electric heaters work hard. Heat pumps can cut that a lot.
  • Air conditioning all dayBig open floors and high ceilings take a lot of cooling.
  • Leased premisesMost gyms lease, so solar needs the landlord on board.

How it works

Simple, and the numbers come first

  1. Energy analysisWe start with your bills and 30-minute interval data, so the design fits how your site really uses power.
  2. Feasibility and designRoof, switchboard and grid checks, then a design that balances cost, output and payback.
  3. InstallationInstalled by our licensed, accredited electrical partner, using quality, well-supported brands.
  4. Monitoring and supportEvery system is monitored after install, so faults get caught and fixed early.
FAQ

Common questions

Will solar help if our busiest time is the evening?

Solar covers the daytime load, which is still most of the day for a gym. For the evening, a battery or a contract with cheaper evening rates does more. We model both.

Can you help with pool and hot water costs?

Yes. Heating is often the biggest saving. Heat pumps, better controls and covers can cut it, and we check what pays back first.

We lease our premises. Can we still save?

Yes. The power and gas contracts are usually in your name, so a bill review works whether you own or lease. Solar and batteries need the landlord's OK, and the lease needs to be long enough to pay them back. We can help you put the case to the landlord.

Do you work with gym chains and franchises?

Yes. We review every site and manage the contracts together, with a savings summary for each.

Are there incentives?

Eligible rebates may apply for solar, batteries and some efficiency upgrades like heat pumps.
