Eco Map: Wind turbine



The wind turbine harnesses the power of the wind to produce clean renewable electricity for the Centre and its guests.

Over a year it will produce enough electricity to power four houses without polluting the environment. It reduces the centre's production of CO2 - the main greenhouse gas - by 5.5 tonnes per year.

Clean, renewable forms of energy, such as wind power, are essential if we are to tackle climate change.
