SCHOOLS The event was attended by Mike Penning, MP for Hemel Hempstead, and 120 local children from
Redbourn Infant and Nursery School and John F Kennedy Catholic School.
The RES Group, one of the world’s leading renewable energy developers, marked Global Wind Day with an event as its UK headquarters in Kings Langley recently to showcase its commitment to wind energy as a secure, clean and cost effective option for current and future generations.
The schedule for the event included...
• Sessions teaching the children about renewable energy technologies, including wind power
• A tour of the RES Group’s state-of- the-art headquarters
• Four Sixth form students from nearby JFK secondary school will be awarded with the RES Young Engineering Excellence Award
“Britain’s inexhaustible supplies of wind energy will keep bills down for homes and industry as foreign gas prices continue to increase. Wind power also creates jobs and investment, putting the UK at the forefront of the green economy, which is why time and time again opinion polls show that the public are in favour of British wind power. There are many myths about wind power, which need to be dispelled. The unparalleled benefits of wind energy, along with other sustainable sources, have the power to secure this country’s future energy needs.”

RES GROUP COMMITMENT Ian Mays, CEO of the RES Group commented: “The RES Group firmly believes that wind power is essential to the UK’s energy mix. We face an energy gap when more than 20% of the UK’s electricity generating capacity – ageing coal and nuclear power stations – will be retired over the next eight years. We have to fill this gap in a secure, low- carbon and cost-effective way and there is no better alternative than wind.
