Have you looked up on Grouse Mountain (http://www NULL.grousemountain NULL.com) lately? Have you seen anything different? Something that stands about 65 metres tall?
Work started back in the summer on a massive wind turbine up on the mountain, and we’ve followed along as the huge structure was built. Well, it officially opened this past Friday (February 5th), and will generate 20% of Grouse Mountain’s overall electricity. Pretty cool! Did you know our blog runs on wind power?
Here’s a video of Premiere Gordon Campbell at the ribbon cutting ceremony. Photos from the opening day ceremonies can be found at that link, as well as more photos from the construction phase (seen in the gallery above). If you’d like to see the gallery larger, clicking here will super-size it in a new window (http://www NULL.flickr NULL.com/photos/57942528 null@null N00/sets/72157622461669392/show/).
