Queenstown Golf Club has transitioned to a largely self-powered facility, operating its café, kitchen, bar, and pro shop mainly on solar energy. The solar system, installed by Queenstown Solar in October, supports the club's role as a community shelter hub, providing essential services during potential disasters.
The system generates around 30 kWh daily, allowing the club to keep vital operations running and support local residents in emergencies. Financially, the investment has a projected payback period of six to eight years, with panels expected to last up to 30 years. In addition to solar power, the club has reduced chemical usage and planted over 1,000 native trees, enhancing environmental sustainability.
