Frontier Energy - Glengormley High Wind Turbine Project |
|
Glengormley High School is located on the northern edge of the Belfast urban area and occupies an elevated site with prevailing winds. The turbine is located on the highest part of the campus between the school buildings and the playing fields.
The purpose of our project is:
-To install a wind turbine that could supply some of the school's electricity needs without harming the environment.
-To create an exemplar project to show schools, colleges, businesses, local authorities and the wider community that wind power can be successfully used to generate electricity for properties of this scale.
-To demonstrate the availability of energy from wind power to our school students and students from local primary and secondary schools. To provide a learning resource around issues of sustainable development.
-To give support to energy conservation and eco-friendly policies in Northern Ireland.
