Looking for a breeze

After completing the wiring of the solar power system, Ben (manager of WCS Middle Caye) and Charles Woodward (manager of Slick Rock), decided that it wasn't enough.

Not looking down, they found the highest point on the island (which is very very flat) to set up a wind generator. Wind blows most of the year on Glovers Reef and can easily be converted into energy.

After a few hours up the phone tower they had the wind generator working. Hopefully we won't have to sacrifice any birds to Aeolus.


Another view from the end of our pier...Charly climber extraordinaire!

The wind generator and solar system are clean energy giving us enough power to only run the generator for 5h/day and still have power 24h/day allowing us to have light and internet when needed!
