Quarry wind farm powers 5,200 homes

A four-turbine wind farm built in a quarry has become the first of its kind to begin generating power in Dorset.  Alaska Wind Farm at Masters Quarry in East Stoke, near Wareham is said to be capable of providing enough electricity for about 5,200 homes each year. 
ZCD supports such renewable energy projects as they produce much needed home grown power and should help bring energy bills down.  But this project took 20 years to come to fruition and that is far too long if the UK is to reach at least 95% clean power generation by 2030.
