Exorbitant yearly electricity bills of $100,000 at the Centennial Pool, run by Thames Coromandel District Council, meant that the facility faced partial closure. The decision to heat the pool using wood fuel instead of electricity has led to a dramatic decrease in energy consumption and running costs, ensuring that the pool stays open and has a bright future.
Estimated savings are $68,000 per year, with an annual reduction in CO2 emissions of approximately 200 tonnes.
