Ormeau Golf Club

Solarfix is proud to announce the installation of a high-performing solar energy system at Ormeau Golf Club, known as “the course in the heart of the city.”

When speaking with the team at Ormeau Golf Club, they noted: “We take pride in maintaining high standards - especially when it comes to sustainability and our responsibility to our members and the natural surroundings we’re privileged to enjoy. When we set out to introduce solar power to our Clubhouse, we knew we needed a partner who shared our priorities, Solarfix proved to be exactly that partner.”

From the outset, our values were clearly aligned. Solarfix’s commitment to premium workmanship and customer excellence made the project seamless, ensuring the Club received a system tailored to its needs, installed to the highest standard.

Financial Savings

Across Northern Ireland, businesses continue to face rising and volatile electricity costs. By contrast, Ormeau Golf Club has taken control of its energy future. Visitors driving past the course will now see an array of PV panels working hard every day to reduce the Club’s annual electricity spend.

Reflecting on the benefits, Ormeau Golf Club commented: “The project ran smoothly from start to finish, and the difference it has made is significant. We’re seeing financial savings - supporting the long-term future of the Club - while also reducing our carbon footprint. These benefits are crucial for a small club like us who face increasing costs every year. It also means we can continue to offer a high standard to our members without having to increase their costs.”

Generating over 15,000 kWh per year of clean, renewable energy, the system allows the Club to redirect savings into the areas that matter most - investing in members, improving facilities, and supporting long-term operations. With a payback period of just 2.7 years and a return on capital of 39.1%, the installation offers exceptional financial performance.

Why Solarfix

Following a detailed site survey and a thorough analysis of the Club’s energy usage, Solarfix surveyor Darren recommended a G98 system. This “install and advise” approach ensured Ormeau Golf Club could benefit quickly from the installation — while also taking advantage of automatically approved export, enabling the Club to earn money even when it isn’t consuming all of the solar energy produced.

Since the project’s completion, the Club has praised Solarfix for our reliability, expertise, and customer-first approach: “It was extremely important that we chose an installer who understood our needs as a club, and Solarfix more than met that expectation. They are a dependable, forward-thinking organisation that delivered a first-class renewable energy solution.”

Carbon Savings

Sustainability is particularly meaningful for Ormeau Golf Club, situated just a mile from Belfast city centre, set against the iconic Harland & Wolff cranes yet surrounded by peaceful green space.

The Club’s new solar system will offset over 5,000kg of carbon every year — and more than 125,000kg over the 25-year panel warranty period. These carbon reductions support key CSR goals, making the project not only financially beneficial but also environmentally impactful. It’s a true win-win for the Club, its members, and the local environment.
