Environmental Forum: Interactive Wind Turbine Talk

Come along to our quarterly Environmental Forums and take a wealth of knowledge back to your office.

The second quarterly Environmental Forum year is coming up Thursday 5th June.  The theme for this quarter will be an interactive wind turbine talk, hosted at the Green Park wind turbine viewing platform. The talk will be lead by Green Park’s Energy Consultant, Ian Gough, who will be giving an informative talk and providing some insightful facts and figures about the wind turbine, explaining its purpose and how it works. Ian has been involved with the wind turbine since it was completed in 2005 and has an extensive knowledge on both its history and operation.

The Green Park wind turbine has been deemed Europe’s most visible wind turbine, and has since become a major landmark for Reading. At 125m tall, the 2MW state-of-the-art Ecotricity turbine is one of the largest land-based windmills in the UK, soaring above Junction 11 of the M4 motorway, and offering over 11 million people a year an inspiring view of a cleaner future. It can generate 4.5 million units (kWh) of green electricity every year, enough for around 1,500 new local homes and businesses.
