Whitelee Windfarm is the UK\u2019s largest onshore windfarm. We discovered that the windfarm has 215 turbines which can power over 300,000 homes. During our day we carried out experiments and had the opportunity to stand underneath a turbine. It was amazing to see them up close and listen to how quiet they actually are! Learning about renewable energy production and how it helps tackle climate change has been fascinating. Are big turbines a price worth paying for tackling climate change?
