Hugh Piggott - Build your own Wind Turbine

Everyone on the course works together to build one wind turbine over the duration of the course, which is held in Ballinamore.
No previous skills are required as everything is taught as we go along. The course involves metal work, welding, wood carving with hand tools and soldering amongst other things involved in building a wind turbine to produce electricity.

The particular type of turbine which is built on our course is designed by world renowned turbine designer Hugh Piggott and he comes to Ireland only once a year, in September, to teach on our workshop.

This is the first year that this special workshop, featuring Hugh Piggott, is being held in Ballinamore.
