We’re thrilled to share some exciting news—Burns Street Studios has gone solar, making us a truly eco-friendly rehearsal space! This is a big step in our commitment to sustainability and supporting our local creative community. The installation of solar panels is part of our ongoing efforts to make the studio more eco-friendly while keeping our overheads low.

By generating renewable energy on-site, we’re significantly reducing our reliance on traditional energy sources and lowering our carbon footprint. These savings allow us to maintain affordable rates for the artists, theatre groups, and creative businesses that rely on our spaces.
As a community-focused organization, we believe in leading by example. The creative industries can have a significant environmental impact, but small changes—like generating renewable energy—can make a big difference. Our solar panels will cut down on energy costs, enabling us to pass savings on to our users while staying true to our eco-conscious values.
Our main hall is a bustling hub for theatre rehearsals, art exhibitions, and community events, and now it operates more sustainably than ever. Whether it’s students preparing their next big performance or artists showcasing their latest work, we’re proud to offer a space powered by clean energy.
This project reflects our belief that creativity and sustainability go hand in hand. As we look to the future, we’ll continue exploring ways to make Burns Street Studios a greener, more accessible space for all.
We’d like to thank our collaborators, including support from Glasgow City Council Business Advisors and Business Energy Scotland, for helping us bring this project to life. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to invest in a brighter, greener future!
