Solutions
01The problem

Sustainability goals were being constrained by site limitations

Morlais Castle Golf Club wanted to reduce operational energy costs, lower carbon emissions and support its wider sustainability objectives. However, limited installation space and a busy calendar of weddings, hospitality events and corporate functions created significant challenges for project delivery. Any solution would need to work around both physical constraints and the operational demands of a busy leisure venue.

Morlais Castle Golf Club site context
02The solution

Infrastructure designed around the site's operational realities

Nuvolt designed and delivered a bespoke solar PV and EV charging solution tailored to the unique constraints of the site. With limited internal space available, the SolarEdge inverter was strategically positioned externally to maximise usable building space while maintaining system performance. Following a detailed assessment, DMEGC solar panels were selected for their efficiency and suitability for the available installation area. To further support the club's sustainability ambitions, Project EV charging stations were installed within the car park, creating additional value for members and visitors. Delivery was carefully planned around the club's events schedule, with scaffolding erected and removed between key events to minimise disruption and maintain normal operations throughout the project.

  • Rooftop solar with an external SolarEdge inverter to overcome internal space limits
  • Project EV chargers introducing a new on-site revenue line
  • Phased delivery around weddings, corporate events and member activity
  • Visible sustainability story for a club rooted in its community since 1270
03 · The outcome

Lower operating costs with new revenue opportunities

The completed system helps Morlais Castle Golf Club reduce reliance on imported grid electricity while supporting its long-term sustainability objectives. The solar installation contributes to an annual carbon reduction of approximately 4 tonnes CO₂e, equivalent to saving around 160 trees each year. Alongside the environmental benefits, the project helps reduce operational energy costs while the EV charging infrastructure creates an additional revenue opportunity and enhances the club's offering for members, guests and visitors. The result is a more sustainable and commercially resilient leisure facility.
