PRESS RELEASE
Hutton Moor Leisure Centre upgrades save 60 tonnes of carbon each year
06 Mar 2024
Parkwood Leisure, in collaboration with North Somerset Council, has upgraded the Building Management System [BMS] at Hutton Moor Leisure Centre / Parkwood Leisure
Hutton Moor Leisure Centre, part of the Parkwood Leisure estate, has made significant strides in sustainability and community engagement, solidifying Parkwood’s commitment to environmental responsibility and improved wellbeing in the local community.
In an exciting move towards improved management and operational control, Parkwood Leisure, in collaboration with North Somerset Council, has upgraded the Building Management System [BMS] at Hutton Moor Leisure Centre. These changes have led to significantly reduced carbon emissions and increases in energy efficiency for the local leisure centre.
The project, which has been running since November 2023 has reduced Hutton Moor Leisure Centre’s electricity consumption by up to 60,000KWh and gas by 18,000KWh with total carbon emission savings of over 60 tonnes per year.
These upgrades mean it is possible for centre staff to monitor the demands of essential functions such as lighting, heating and AC. This system is constantly monitoring the demands of the facility and making real-time adjustments to optimise energy usage, meaning that lights only shine where needed and energy consumption is minimised without compromising the comfort and safety of customers and colleagues.
As part of this project to optimise the facilities, brand-new variable speed pool pumps have been installed which allows the centre to circulate water at lower flow rates for extended periods throughout the day. By allowing the water to circulate at lower flow rates for longer durations, Hutton Moor maximises energy savings without compromising water quality or guest experience.
As a part of Parkwood Leisure’s continued commitment to reducing carbon emissions and saving energy across all its sites, Hutton Moor Leisure Centre will be making further investments into energy efficiency at the site over the course of 2024.
Managing Director of Parkwood Leisure, Glen Hall explains: “This project highlights Parkwood Leisure’s commitment to the environmental responsibility that comes with running leisure facilities. By upgrading the key systems that support the operational running of the centre, we are able to simultaneously improve the experience of the local community while maximising sustainability for a greener future.”

“We have enjoyed a fantastic partnership with Parkwood Leisure for more than 10 years. They manage all of our leisure facilities including four leisure centres and Edwalton golf course, and the knowledge, expertise and experience they bring is first class. The slick operation they run, combined with innovative ways they’ve engaged local residents, mean we’ve never had a more physically active community and we’re excited to continue our partnership into the future.”
