SOLAR PANELS

After several quiet years on the building front, suddenly we have 2 major projects. The disabled accesses are going in and all the doors are being renewed. This project is due to be completed by the end of March. We also have another project now which also requires to be completed by the end of March, and that's the installation of solar panels on the Lighthouse. At the Board meeting last night, we also agreed to install solar panels on the church building before 1st July. If all goes to plan, we should make huge savings on our energy bills over the next 25 years. When the possibility of putting solars panels on the buildings was mooted several months ago, the Board was generally sceptical about the viability financially of such a project. Last night the Board was unanimous in expressing gratitude to Anne Thomas for the remarkable amount of work she has done on this project. She was able to answer every concern that the Board had, and in the process change the ultimate decision.
