It’s Not Just The Grass That’s Green at Patersons Stadium
In a first for stadiums Australia-wide, the West Australian Football Commission has recently installed our real-time energy monitoring platform, Greensense View, to measure and reduce the ground’s energy consumption.
As venue managers, the WAFC implemented this system to identify ways of increasing energy efficiency, reducing environmental impacts and saving costs. The operational savings gained from more responsibly managing Western Australia’s premier sporting facility can then be reinvested into new initiatives and programmes.
Geoff Glass, the WAFC’s Director of Facilities and Planning is encouraged by the project and the opportunities it presents.
“The Greensense project at Patersons Stadium has allowed us as venue managers, to better understand our energy usage and will provide staff with real time feedback on energy consumption. It will also stimulate ideas and ways for all venue occupiers to explore further savings in energy usage and greenhouse emissions,” says Geoff.
The ongoing project will go a long way toward Patersons Stadium achieving maximum returns both economically and environmentally, by first building an informed and effective management. At a time of change for the Stadium, these greener changes are not only ground-breaking for our State’s home of football, but will also inspire and show the way for other AFL and sporting venues Australia-wide.
