Insolation Solar donated 12 solar panels to the Dudley District Scouts, significantly reducing their energy costs and carbon footprint. The system will meet most of the scout hut's summer electricity needs, with excess energy sold back to the grid.
Solar Panels Donation from Insolation Solar
Insolation Solar — a renewable energy company based in Wombourne — has made a significant contribution to the Dudley District Scouts. The company installed a solar panel system at the local scout hut, helping them reduce energy costs and their environmental footprint.
Insolation Solar donated 12 high-efficiency 435-watt solar panels to the scout hut. These solar panels will cover most of the scout hut’s electricity needs during the summer. The surplus energy produced will be sold back to the grid, thereby providing financial support to the scouts — even during the winter months.

Howard Login — Co-Owner of Insolation Solar — explained the motivation behind the donation. "We wanted to give back to our community in a meaningful way," he said. "Supporting the Scout movement felt like a natural choice."
Insolation Solar aims to foster community development while promoting renewable energy solutions. The scout group is now set to benefit from lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact.
Long-Term Cost Savings for Dudley Scouts
The donation is a substantial win for the scouts. With energy prices on the rise, the solar panels provide a long-term solution for the group's electricity needs. The cost savings allow the Dudley Scouts to redirect funds previously spent on energy bills toward more essential activities and services.
The scouts are grateful for Insolation Solar's generosity. Ted Batham, the Dudley District Commissioner for the scouts highlighted the positive impact of the donation. "Acts of generosity by local businesses are invaluable to helping local charities," he said.
Batham expressed his appreciation for the long-term energy solution provided by Insolation Solar. "This will save us money and is in keeping with our values for looking after the environment by reducing our carbon footprint."
Inspiring Other Businesses to Get Involved
This initiative aligns with Insolation Solar's broader mission. The company is committed to supporting local charities and promoting sustainability. "We are committed to supporting sustainable and community-focused initiatives," said Howard.
When the Dudley District Scouts reached out to Insolation Solar for a quote, the company decided to do more than just offer their services. By gifting the solar panels, they provided a significant contribution that goes beyond the immediate need for energy cost reduction.
Insolation Solar hopes that their donation will inspire other businesses to contribute to their local communities in meaningful ways. "By giving this solar system, we hope to secure the future of the scout hut and encourage other businesses to think about how they can help their local communities," Howard added.
A Commitment to the Environment and the Community
The installation of the solar panels also contributes to the scout group's sustainability goals. The Dudley Scouts aim to reduce their carbon footprint, and the solar panel system supports this mission. By relying on renewable energy, the scouts are actively participating in the global effort to fight climate change.
Insolation Solar's donation aligns with the company's goal of reducing carbon footprints and promoting a more sustainable future. The firm has a history of supporting community-focused projects.
