Swaffham
II, Norfolk
Construction Swaffham's second wind turbine was completed
on July 18th. Standing 85m high, it is the UK's tallest onshore
wind turbine and was built at the request of local residents.
This is the second turbine to be sited at Swaffham and combined
with the first
turbine, erected in 1999, will supply 75% of Swaffham's
total home electricity requirements, boosting Norfolk's total
wind power by 30%.

Vote Yes to wind power in
Norfolk
In autumn 2003 we mailed over
100,000 leaflets to households in Breckland and surrounding
districts asking residents to vote Yes or No to local
wind turbines. The feedback was fantastic with around
89% of the almost 9,000 respondents voting a big Yes
to wind power.
Only 6.5% said No and 3.6% were
either undecided or left their vote box blank.
