Eday Renewable Energy Day @ Eday Heritage and Visitor Centre
Mar 23 all-day

As part of National Science and Engineering Week, Eday Heritage and Visitor Centre is holding a Renewable Energy Day this Saturday, 23rd March 2013. The aim of the day is to explain the science and engineering behind renewable energy technologies through a range of themed activities.

The afternoon session (2pm – 4.30pm) is aimed at young people and families, looking at energy in its broadest sense, why sources of renewable energy are important, and how different types of technologies actually work. This will be hands on science and engineering appealing to a wide age range.

In the evening (7pm) representatives from ANDRITZ Hydro Hammerfest will be speaking about their 1MW tidal turbine – the HS1000 – followed by a chaired discussion. The evening will help put some of the recent activity on Eday into a scientific/engineering context and give residents a better understanding of what is happening on their doorstep.

As a backdrop to the day there will be a renewable energy display/exhibition to include marine energy information from EMEC, photographs of the construction of the Eday community turbine, working models, information about the sailed windmills used to grind grain in the past and a series of graphs and charts linking – for example – local weather conditions to power generation.
