Vedadillo windfarm in Navarre, Spain

Global Wind Day took place yesterday with events from wind farm open days to exhibition launches in Belgium to Berlin. While more events are set to happen this weekend (find out more here), here are a few photos of some of the Global Wind Day events yesterday…

Meanwhile, over in the Czech Republic, a record number of people attended Global Wind Day events. 16 wind farms were open across the country and more than 3,000 visitors received balloons, jigsaws and model aircraft, and took part in walking and cycling tours.

The Czech Wind Energy Association also reported that a public opinion survey found that Czech’s see wind power as the safest and cheapest power source, Michal Janeček of CzWEA said.
