Meeting budding engineers of the future at our sold out Bristol open day
With the sun shining and the wind blowing in Bristol over the weekend, we welcomed 500 people back to our wind farm for our first open day in three years.
Put on hold due to Covid-19 restrictions, it was brilliant to be able to meet lots of new and engaged faces to our four-turbine site in Avonmouth. Attendees had an opportunity to peep inside one of the 2MW operational turbines on site, as well as enjoy a range of other wind-related activities for the whole family including Explorer Dome’s climate change show, face painting and more. The Centre for Sustainable Energy were also on hand to provide advice on energy efficiency.
Coinciding with the start of Great Big Green Week – a national initiative led by the Climate Coalition to celebrate community action in fighting the climate crisis – we wanted to continue the conversation about climate change and how onshore wind projects are part of the solution. We were thrilled by the enthusiasm shown for the turbines and the number of insightful questions asked – with lots coming from well informed budding engineers of the future!
A massive thank you to everyone that joined us, from our excited guests to the exhibitors who helped make it such a valuable event for the community.
Below are just some of the brilliant moments captured from across the day.
