Business Energy Scotland & Home Energy Scotland
The Scottish FA have been working with Scottish Government and its partners Business Energy Scotland and Home Energy Scotland to deliver sessions to support clubs and their communities.
The Scottish FA have also teamed up with Zero Waste Scotland to create the Environmental Sustainability in Scottish Football document and offer free environmental support to football clubs across the country, in a move that could save clubs thousands of pounds every year. By receiving guidance to help identify ways of reducing energy, recycling, water and waste management costs, football clubs could benefit from a financial lifeline, while becoming more eco-friendly through the reduction of operational carbon emissions.
This work has only been possible through the Scottish FA’s involvement in the SDG striker programme, for further information please go here
