Ecoresponsible Sports Center
In 2024, the Hautervie sports center based in the canton of Neuchâtel took a major step towards sustainability by installing 179 solar panels on its roofs, producing 79,048 kWh annually.
Benefits for the town and its citizens
Reduced energy costs
The installation of solar panels will enable the sports center to significantly reduce its energy costs by generating part of the electricity required for its activities.
Energy self-sufficiency
Thanks to this new renewable energy source, the sports center benefits from greater energy autonomy, reducing its dependence on traditional energy suppliers.
The Hautervie example shows how local authorities can play a crucial role in the energy transition. By opting for renewable energy sources, towns can not only reduce their operating costs but also make a significant contribution to environmental protection.
